That's not just coach-speak.' pic.twitter.com/yokg95ebsF — Auburn Gold Mine (@AUGoldMine) August 13, 2016 Gus Malzahn said QB John Franklin III 'did some good things' in Saturday scrimmage. 'You can see he's getting more comfortable.' — Auburn Gold Mine (@AUGoldMine) August 13, 2016 Auburn CB Jamel Dean injured knee earlier this week, will have surgery, out for extended period. Not same knee as previous injury. — Bryan Matthews (@BMattAU) August 13, 2016 DL Raashed Kennion has left the team to "pursue politics," Malzahn said https://t.co/hKFWTecTdK — Josh Vitale (@AUBlog) August 13, 2016 QB Jeremy Johnson was held out today. "Don't read anything into that," Malzahn said. Wanted to see more of White/Franklin. — Josh Vitale (@AUBlog) August 13, 2016 Malzahn also said "we're not going to name a starter (at quarterback). ... We still have work to do." https://t.co/hKFWTecTdK — Josh Vitale (@AUBlog) August 13, 2016 Today, that means. Auburn will name a starting QB eventually, but Malzahn said not in the next few days. https://t.co/i4Cdmlb7Py — Josh Vitale (@AUBlog) August 13, 2016 RB Kamryn Pettway got the majority of the carries with the ones "by design" today, Malzahn said. https://t.co/hKFWTecTdK — Josh Vitale (@AUBlog) August 13, 2016 Malzahn: praises the young receivers, says they are getting better after each practice, and have "great attitudes" — Jack Winchester (@JackWin74) August 13, 2016 Catch Up: Fall Practice Schedule / Links to Previous Practice Updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUsome_Tiger11 19 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I hate it for Dean, especially after getting hurt in High School which killed his chance at Ohio State. Wish him a speedy recovery.

RunInRed 16,407 Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 A few more notes ... Quote -- "Overall I felt like it was a solid day." -- First team did "situational" work. Second and third team did more of regular play. Special teams work as well. -- "Wasn't anything major injury-wise" -- Dean's injury was not to the same knee as his ACL injury. -- Josh Holsey and Javaris Davis are now competing, split reps at boundary CB http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/index.ssf/2016/08/live_updates_gus_malzahn_recap_14.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR 2,442 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Kennion has the most original reason for leaving the team since Montae Pitts left to be a rapper. Not sure which is worse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUMASTERS 555 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Jeremy Johnson sat out scimmage; Sean White and JF3 got the reps And then there were two. I still believe it will be Sean starting, but it looks like they are giving JF3 every chance to win the job (as 23 has stated). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither did very well today. SW had two turnovers but moved the ball towards the end and JF3 had one as well. Again, not reputable sources, but all that is around. Apparently, SW did work with the 1s though and JF3 with the 2s Edited August 13, 2016 by DAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austudnt23 1,432 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) I was at scrimmage. JF3 outplayed SW. SW eventually started moving the ball and looked good. Neither looked very good throwing the football. I believe SW had 2 TO JF3 1 and JF3 was on the 4th down drill.

Win4AU 4,052 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 700-1000 people there so should be plenty of info floating around about the results. Gus said Woody played with 3rd a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr82b4au 5,568 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 According to a few people at the scrimmage that were giving updates on other boards, our qbs were terrible. SW did not play well and had multiple turnovers. JF3 did a little better. Kam looked good. There was also some play calling concerns posted. Maybe au23 can elaborate on that because they said we ran the same stuff as last year with no success. Gus is in a tough spot. We are in a tough spot. Hope our D is elite this year.

RunInRed 16,407 Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 Kennion is likely transferring to another school, according to a source familiar with the decision. Kennion, a native of Jacksonville, Fla., played in both 2014 and 2015 and started two games last season. He had three tackles in a starting role against Mississippi State. "He’s headed back home and we wish him nothing but the best with that," Malzahn said. Kennion did not appear to be a strong contender for a starting spot in 2016. http://auburn.247sports.com/Bolt/D-end-leaves-the-team-46745770 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
