Hank Brown is slated for the first start of his college career.
Auburn redshirt freshman quarterback Hank Brown is set to start the first game of his college career on Saturday night as the Tigers take on the New Mexico Lobos for homecoming at Jordan-Hare Stadium, according to multiple reports.
After watching the film, there is a very, very short leash on us playing as poorly as we did at that position,” Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze said of the quarterback situation during the SEC coaches teleconference on Wednesday.In his first year on The Plains after transferring from Michigan State, Thorne passed for 1,755 yards, 16 touchdowns and 10 interceptions.
After Brown was named the Tigers’ backup quarterback shortly before Auburn’s season-opener, all signs pointed to the redshirt freshman being the guy the Tigers would turn to if Freeze decided to make a change.
