After it was reported by Matt Zenitz of On3 that Jeremiah Wilson was expected to join the Auburn Tigers staff, he confirmed it on Twitter.
Wilson comes from Akron where he served as the defensive backs coach last season. He will likely assist secondary coach Zac Etheridge for the upcoming season in an analyst role.
Prior to Akron, Jeremiah Wilson served as a quality control coach for the Tennessee Volunteers in 2019 and 2020. His other top assistant job came at Florida State University where he was an off-field assistant for the Seminoles staff from 2013 until 2017. He joined Tennessee-Chatanooga’s staff in 2018.
His role with the Seminoles revolved around the secondary and recruiting. During his time with the Noles there were several key secondary players drafted into the NFL under his watch, including Super Bowl champion Jalen Ramsey.
- Jalen Ramsey
- Lamarcus Joyner
- Terrance Brooks
- PJ Williams
- Derwin James
This could prove to be another key hire for Bryan Harsin and the Auburn staff.
