The Top Button Podcast | HMMM: VERY INTERESTING Trend With Durkin/Defense That NO ONE Is Talking About

There’s a noticeable trend developing on Auburn’s defensive side of the ball, and it doesn’t feel accidental. As more names enter the portal, a clear strategy around player retention is starting to take shape — and it centers on a very specific type of defender that this staff appears determined to prioritize.

We break down what that profile looks like, why it matters in today’s game, and how it explains some of the recent movement. That includes a closer look at the cornerback room after losing another CB to the portal, as well as the linebacker room following another departure. What’s being protected? What’s being replaced? And what does that tell us about how Auburn wants to play defense moving forward?

This is about more than just who’s leaving — it’s about who Auburn is choosing to build around.
