Multiple sources are reporting that former Arkansas State quarterback Ryan Aplin will take a position as a graduate assistant in the Auburn football program.
Aplin previously had been serving as an administrative intern at Ole Miss for less than a year prior to his move to Auburn.
There is a history between the pair, as Aplin was the starting quarterback for the Red Wolves in Malzahn's lone season at Arkansas State.
Under Malzahn and offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee, Aplin threw for 3,323 yards, 24 touchdowns and just four interceptions.
This is not the first time Malzahn has made a move to help a former quarterback.
Lashlee was a quarterback under Malzahn during his years Shiloh Christian High School in Springdale, Arkansas.
Former Auburn receiver and quarterback Kodi Burns previously held a graduate assistant position in the Auburn program under Malzahn before leaving to become the running backs coach at Samford in early May.
