“Robby (Ashford), if he handles things the right way,” Freeze said, “he has to get on that field some. He's just different.”
ADAM COLE In the handful of days since announcing Auburn’s starting quarterback, Hugh Freeze has had as outspoken a message for his second-string quarterback as he’s had for his starter.
Auburn’s quarterback battle seemingly came down to Thorne and Ashford, and Freeze clarified that Thursday by saying that Ashford will primarily work with second-stringers. Early indications, however, are that Ashford isn’t sitting comfortably at his current post. People are also reading… In Saturday’s scrimmage, Freeze said Ashford was 8 for 15 passing and threw two touchdowns. His throwing ability is something he’s worked on for much of the offseason, and offensive coordinator Philip Montgomery said early in camp that it’s where Ashford has improved most.
Ashford, who Freeze called the “most freakish athlete” he’s ever coached at quarterback, started nine games for Auburn last season. He ended the season with 2,323 all-purpose yards and flourished on the ground, averaging 4.6 yards per carry and scoring seven touchdowns.
