It sounds like new Auburn head coach Alex Golesh is feeling a little unsure about the Tigers’ O-line.

In a refreshingly honest press conference answer, Golesh said he is feeling extremely confident about some groups, but when it comes to the offensive line, he thinks it may be a process there.

“This offensive line, on paper, you feel really, really good about it. We had to go get immediate production — guys who have played at a high level,” Golesh said, adding that there are more than 10 players in the room who believe they have a legitimate chance to start on a unit filled with new faces.

Ultimately though, Golesh is realistic in saying he knows it’s not going to come together right away.

“To tell you, man, I know we’re going to be elite at certain spots. I’d be lying to you,” he said. “I can tell you I’ve been praying about it a lot and I’m gonna continue to pray. If there’s one position I’m praying about, it’s the O-line. So if anyone wants to join me, have it. But there’s praying about it and there’s going to work.”

By the sounds of it, Golesh is cautiously optimistic about a group that has not been good enough for the Tigers in recent years, but refreshingly, he knows that it takes success from the line to have success as an offense.

It might not happen right away for Golesh on The Plains, but it certainly seems that Auburn hired the right man for the job.
