Eisenhower_1952 87 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I noticed he didn't play, nor did Ashley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBiGGiE 2,488 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Heard him listed as injured during the pregame show. Ashley, according to word on the street, has removed himself from the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Tega may be leaving early or because Ashley who, ranked as a 5 star in highschool can't move past 2nd string? To the best of my investigative prowess every lineman not named Tucker Brown is eligible to return next year and the OL has shown improvement over the last few games.

AlaskanFAN 1,665 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I saw 68 Troxell at RT and 66 Sharp at LT both playing unless Trox switched #’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if Ashley leaves the OL is ruined ?....but yet he not been able to be a dependable lineman? The few times I've noticed him in games is because some DE had run right past him to destroy a play. He looked really slow. .That 5* stuff is in the past....only way he is important next season is if he can be a better player. Hoping he can turn it on next year, live up to his promise and become an NFL prospect. But ….a long way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad we're on the same page. Well you're just wrong then, lol. Losing Tega to the draft may hurt, but he'll most likely be replaced by Bailey Sharpe who has been serviceable by my account. Calvin Ashley up until this point has been a non-factor, so no the O-Line for 2019 may actually be the least of our worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linayus 676 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Tega would be better served to stay another year and continue learning with more experience at the position. I hope he considers that before taking his chances of being a very late round pick (or free agent even since he's still relatively raw). I hope Ashley returns as well. He did okay but had a lot of learning to do. Hopefully the off season workouts will help him get into the form we need. Overall, the line showed improvement late in the season. I'll be less worried about it next season but it's still not a strength. Not yet, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburn2Eugene 2,317 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 They said before the game Trox was going to be out for the game. And I'll believe Ashley returns when I see it. I've seen it reported behind paywalls that he may never take another football snap. Not just at Auburn, but any school. Medical issues like he is rumored to have don't just go away. So y'all can most likely just give that Ashley thing up. He will likely never take another snap in a football game. Maybe he will return, but I won't hold my breath.

Yep and then after next season, it goes back to having 0 experience. 2020 season will be UGLY unless something changes on the OL and fast. Missing on Morris hurt us long term.
