re: Auburn Football: Opening Practice Notes, Pics, & Video

In early linebacker drills, Auburn was lined up in terms of starters. The first unit was Kris Frost at strongside linebacker, Jake Holland at middle linebacker and Daren Bates on the weak side. Jonathan Evans, a senior coming off of injury, was working behind Bates on the weak side.

John Sullen, expected to start at left guard, was working on a stationary bike instead of going through stretches with his teammates. There has been no update on his status.



I don't think these short shorts are popular with players. Brandon Fulse was fighting with his pair every 30 seconds.

I saw Alex Kozan for the first time. Doesn't look as fit as some of the other young guys.

RB Jovon Robinson dropped a punt return and totally admonished himself. Yelled. Firey guy.

* Five-star linebacker Reuben Foster, an Auburn commitment from Auburn High School, was on hand to watch practice Wednesday. Auburn wide receiver Blaise Taylor was also in attendance.

* Sophomore offensive guard Eric Mack was not at practice, at least during the time open for reporters.
