Gus Malzahn to give Chad Morris full control of Auburn offense in 2020
MOBILE, Ala. — Gus Malzahn is giving up play-calling duties. Again.
The eighth-year head coach said Chad Morris will have full control of Auburn's offense in 2020.
"Chad Morris, in my opinion, is one of the best offensive minds in all of college football," Malzahn said after practice at the Senior Bowl in Mobile. "We're going to turn him loose, and I'm very excited that he's a part. I trust him 110%. He's going to take our offense and he's going to run with it. I'm very excited about that. It's something that me and him have been talking about for a long time, being two high school coaches from way back when. We finally get a chance to coach with each other, and I'm excited that he's going to be in charge of our offense. Really looking forward to next year.
"You don't hire a guy like Chad Morris unless you're going to do that."
