The only point I've been making in this thread is that I think that it is too soon to give up on him.

Jesus Christ dude we arent coaches. What we can do is speculate anything.

don't think the fact that he didn't beat out a seasoned 2 year P5 starter in Fall practice is evidence that he can't become a starter himself one day either.

That starter isnt that special so getting beat out does say a bit. He was about to lose his own job but he came to Auburn because we needed a QB.

What quality QB would Ashford need to compete against to actually win a spot?
Finley and Thorne both beat him out. Our expectations and Robby's expectations would be conflicting as hell if we wanted our QB room to get better while Robby needs the QB room as mediocre as ever.
