Harsin was the former head coach at Auburn during the 2021-22 seasons, and was fired by the Tigers midway through the 2022 season. As head coach of the Auburn program, Harsin compiled a combined 9-12 overall record, and lost his lone Iron Bowl vs. Alabama at home in 2021 by a final score of 24-22 in four overtimes.
