Former Auburn football player Aairon Savage has stepped down after one year as Decatur High’s head football coach.

Savage confirmed the news to AL.com following a special called meeting by the Decatur City Board of Education on Friday morning.

The Decatur Daily was first to report the move.

The Red Raiders went 3-7 in Savage’s only year at the helm, losing the final four games of the season.

Savage replaced Jere Adcock, who spent 27 years as the Decatur head coach.

The Albany, Ga., native played defensive back on Auburn’s 2010 BCS title team. He came to Decatur after coaching defensive backs for Western Illinois.

Savage also has had college coaching experience at Louisiana-Lafayette, Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Georgia State, Northern Iowa, Arkansas Tech and Army and spent time as a graduate assistant at Georgia Tech and Auburn.

In his Auburn career, Savage finished with 116 tackles. He had 37 tackles in the Tigers’ 2010 season.
