Auburn has hired Lance Thompson to coach the Tigers' linebackers next season, according to Charles Goldberg.
As the Crimson Tide's outside linebackers coach for the past three seasons, Thompson will join Will Muschamp's staff in 2015 alongside Travaris Robinson and Rodney Garner.
Thompson worked with Muschamp before at LSU in 2002 and 2003 and is considered one of the game's top recruiters.
Auburn's coaching staff is complete with the hiring of Thompson, who will try and help improve a defense that had many weak spots in 2014.
