Charles Barkley showed support for Alex Golesh while talking to reporters on Monday at The Bruce, Barkley and Basketball Golf Tournament.
“People who know football tell me we got a winner,” Barkley said. “You Auburn people are so damn impatient, and y’all always compare yourself to Tuscaloosa, which is stupid. I’m very happy with our football coach.”
The Auburn Tigers are 3-1 through four games during Golesh's first season as the head football coach at Auburn. He became the Tigers' 33rd head football coach in November after serving as USF's head coach for multiple seasons.
Golesh is fresh off leading the Tigers to their first SEC home win since 2024.
The Tigers defeated Vanderbilt 21-15 on Saturday.
