Yet another assistant from Boise State is joining Bryan Harsin’s staff.
On Saturday, Auburn announced the hiring of Jeff Schmedding as the new inside linebackers coach and defensive run game coordinator.
“When you look at the defenses Coach Schmedding coordinated in Boise, they were championship caliber, so I know the work ethic and preparation he brings every single day,” Harsin said. “He is a veteran presence on this staff that makes others around him better. The versatility he brings with the linebackers and connecting the attacking middle of our Auburn defense will complement the vision of Coach Mason as a whole.”
Schmedding had served as the inside linebackers coach for the Broncos in 2020 after coaching the outside linebackers in 2019.
“I want to thank Coach Harsin for the opportunity to be a part of his staff at Auburn,” Schmedding said. “My family and I are very humbled and honored to be a part of such a great university like Auburn. I’m excited to get to work and make the Auburn family proud.”
