Keionte Scott on moving to outside corner, his decision to return to Auburn and more
AUBURN -- Like Eugene Asante, cornerback Keionte Scott is an unquestioned leader for Auburn who had a decision to make following the season. Scott could have dove into the NFL waters or returned for one more season. He chose the latter, solidifying himself as one of the Tigers' best defenders in 2024. "Ultimately, just the chance to excel. I had more in my tank to get better, more to show," Scott said. "Coming back and get the chance to get my degree, that's big for me and my family. That's something I'm trying to do to be the first in my family to do, so that's big. Also, I believe in what Coach Freeze is doing and I'm 100 percent bought into it. I'm trying to build the thing and turn up, and say my name was a part of turning the program over." More from Scott on moving back to outside cornerback and more inside...
