Auburn quarterback talks about the dynamic in the quarterback room
Auburn fans wanted the Tigers to go get a quarterback in the transfer portal, but Hugh Freeze stuck with what he has on the roster.
Quarterback play was questionable last season, and with one role player from last year deciding to transfer the room aside from one player is young and inexperienced. The way Coach Freeze has talked to the media, it seems like every quarterback on the roster will get a fair shot to win the job.
Many assume Payton Thorne will win the job as he is the experienced veteran, but Hank Brown, Holden Geriner, and Walker White will all have a chance to win the starting role.
Brown joined the Locked On Auburn Podcast, and host Zac Blackerby asked him about the dynamic in the quarterback room. Brown had this to say, "I love the quarterback room. We're all super close. And adding Walker to that is, you know, awesome. You know, he's a great guy. And so, you know, all of us together, I think we've grown and got a lot closer throughout the past year being together. And so, you know, I just, I couldn't say enough good things about it. We're super close, and we're just excited to compete against each other and grow together."
It will be a battle to see who wins this job, but all four of these names discussed have a real shot to win it. The betting odds would favor Thorne in this race, but it would surprise no one to see one of the young guys win.
