Auburn LB Eugene Asante is back for another season

Auburn just received some huge news as Eugene Asante announced he will come back for another season on the Plains.

Asante came out of nowhere and was right up there with Marcus Harris as Auburn's best defensive player this season.

The linebacker led Auburn in tackles with 84, had five sacks, which was third on the team, and had a fumble recovery for a touchdown against Texas A&M.

To sum it up, Asante had a really good season for the Tigers and even had a few games where it felt like he single-handedly kept Auburn in it, like the Cal game where the Tigers came out on top.

Auburn has a lot of talented defenders who will be making the move to the NFL so having a player like Asante back is huge for this Auburn team that will be young next season. After a great 2023 season, Asante will likely be considered one of the best linebackers in college football for the start of the 2024 year.

One of the most exciting gets for a coaching staff is finding out one of your talented veterans will return, and that is what Asante just brought to Coach Freeze and the staff.
