Priority defensive back target Tyler Scott ready for first Auburn game day experience
MABLETON, GEORGIA – Auburn defensive back target Tyler Scott will take in his first Auburn game experience on Saturday when the Tigers take on Penn State.
The atmosphere and his first chance to spend some time with Zac Etheridge have Scott excited for the trip.
Auburn Live spoke with Scott, once again, about his affinity to Auburn. He said that Auburn is the school sitting at the top.
Below is the video interview with Scott recorded by Auburn Live’s Cole Pinkston.
Zac Etheridge attended Scott’s game
Friday night, when Pebblebrook (Ga.) High took on Rome (Ga.) High, Auburn secondary coach Zac Etheridge was in attendance to see Scott in action. The two didn’t get to speak until after the game on the phone.
“Coach (Etheridge) said I had a great game,” Scott said. “He said all he wants to see is more of my feet before my hands when I’m playing press technique.”
Having Etheridge there was exciting for Scott who believes he performed well in front of the Auburn coach.
