Harsin maintained in an interview with ESPN late last week that he's "not planning on going anywhere." Auburn released a statement on Monday addressing the situation.

"The Auburn administration is judiciously collecting information from a variety of perspectives, including our student-athletes, and moving swiftly to understand any issues in accordance with university policies and procedures," the statement said.

Harsin arrived at Auburn after being was hired away from Boise State in December 2020.
