Reports: Rocker negotiating potential return

Both AuburnSports.com and The Birmingham News are reporting that Auburn is currently in talks with Tracy Rocker.
Auburn coach Gene Chizik is interested in bringing Rocker onboard as the Tigers defensive line coach.
If Rocker accepts a position, it would mean a return to his alma mater. Rocker was a two-time all-America and a three-time all-SEC player. He also won the Outland Trophy and the Lombardi Trophy as a senior in 1988.
Rocker has worked under Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt for the last six years -- five at Arkansas and last year at Ole Miss.
Chizik has hired six of nine assistant coaches.
