Win4AU 4,055 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 I’m personally excited to watch Worm this year. Ever since that run at the Iron Bowl he seems to have taken it to the next level. Can’t wait to see it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin 3,305 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Auburn receivers are still dropping passes By Zac Blackerby | 10:38 am CT Auburn football’s biggest offseason question did not get answered early in fall camp. The wide receivers for the Tigers have a ton of upside but struggled with consistency during spring practices and it seems like that carried over into the first practice of fall camp. Justin Hokanson of On3 talked about it on the Auburn Live podcast. “I watched today, Elijah Canion, Kobe Hudson, I watched Ze’Vian Capers. I actually watched Capers and Hudson both dropped passes in the 20 minutes that I got to see. Screen passes. Just full-blown lack of focus type of stuff. Same stuff they did last year. “A lot of ability. Nobody would argue that those three guys with a lot of size and a lot of talent. You bring in (Demetris) Robertson. How quickly does he get in the mix, how quickly does he get acclimated? You’ve got to love his maturity coming in. Maybe that will rub off o those guys.” Head coach Bryan Harsin talked about how Robertson could arrive on campus any day and get involved in practice and get reps in the offense once he finished up his academic work at Georgia. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People going to take for granted some of the catches SW were making last year. I have full faith in this guys putting it together though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnNTexas 7,213 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 You really can't learn much from a Day 1 Practice but what has me a little hopeful were comments from Worm on Tank being better then last year and Wooden about D-linemen Walker, Butler, Harris and Fair. With the LB's and DB's we have if we really do have a disruptive D-Line we will have a really good defense this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WFE12 9,191 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 I sure hope Colby's right about the improved pass rush. I think the secondary is already gonna be great even greater with a pass rush. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnacle 9,064 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 The new attitude from this staff is so clearly permeating throughout the team. So much use of the word focus. I love to hear it.

cole256 17,084 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Also too nobody in this thread said it's ok, but most of us understand that we will be much better right before the game than the very start of practice. If we have a bunch of drops in game I'll be the first to say something. And everybody should be proud, I didn't even bring up a poster's hypocrisy of being a hard ass about drops but was so understanding to QB play when it was at it's lowest....... But anyway these guys haven't even started a game yet, I know as they get more comfortable they are going to get much better...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopsing 587 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Seriously how many were dropped. 3 in first set of drills, or 5 all day, or what? I agree with another poster that mentioned 1st day of practice… so yeah probably a few. Also, did they report how many missed “air” tackles, or possibly a missed FG? I feel like this is a non event! Now 3 weeks into practice and we got the dropsies, then we may have an issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
