“We want to get him started as fast as possible,” Bryan Harsin told the media on Thursday.
The talented wideout brings much needed maturity and talent to an Auburn receiving corps in need of help. Harsin expressed the desire for “consistency” amongst his receivers when he opened fall camp last week.
“The details they take from the meetings, the application on the field, then what they do in the evenings, that’s a position where you better be a student of the game,” Harsin said. “I think the really, really good ones understand the game and those critical, critical moments in the game. It’s being able to put yourselves into position, based off coverage, that’s going to give us an advantage because you understand and you paid attention in practice. You saw the looks that the defense is doing, so you can respond properly when the ball’s snapped. That goes for a lot of positions, but that one in particular is extremely important for us and what we’re trying to accomplish in our offense.”
