At least 3 members of Liberty staff set to join Hugh Freeze at Auburn

At least three members of Hugh Freeze’s Liberty staff are set to join him at Auburn.

Associate AD for football operations/chief of staff Matt Bevins, general manager A.K. Mogulla and director of recruiting analytics and operations Kennedy Harvey are all already in Auburn and expected to be part of Freeze’s staff with the Tigers, sources tell On3.

Bevins, a former Liberty starting kicker, was promoted to his most recent role for the Flames earlier this year after previously serving as director of high school relations (2017-18), director of player development (2019-20) and assistant AD/director of player development (2021).

Mogulla joined Liberty earlier this year after serving as the GM at Central Michigan, which followed stints in the personnel departments at Georgia Tech and in the NFL with Chicago Bears, Miami Dolphins and Washington Commanders.

Harvey had worked at Liberty since March 2021 after working as a football operations assistant at USC.

Freeze was hired Monday as the replacement for Bryan Harsin, who was fired on Halloween during his second season as the Tigers’ coach.

Freeze went 34-15 in four seasons at Liberty prior to being hired at Auburn.
