TJ Finley had strong command of the offense and Robby Ashford was “flashy” in Auburn’s scrimmage Friday, Auburn offensive coordinator Eric Kiesau said.
Meanwhile, he said Zach Calzada has been inconsistent and that the staff is working to get him back to where he was after being limited in the spring.
Friday marked Auburn’s second scrimmage of fall camp. The scrimmages offer the coaches their best chance at seeing how the quarterbacks operate in live 11-on-11 action. Kiesau stepping off the field said his evaluation of the day’s scrimmage was incomplete having not reviewed the film yet, but he offered insight on how all three performed as the calendar inches closer to the Mercer opener Sept. 3.
Auburn is closing in on its shift from fall camp to Mercer preparation, and would be expected to name a starting quarterback in a matter of days. Texas, for example, named its starting quarterback for its opener on Friday.
