Auburn Football: April 10 Football Tidbits

A week from the big spring A-Day game and excitement is rising. ESPN was on site at Auburn on April 7th to film footage for “College Football Live”.  Spring has come with optimistic intentions to the plains of Auburn.

Photos of the April 3rd scrimmage and other Auburn events might be interesting to some fans. Interviews after the April 7th practice session are interesting with coaches Malzhan and Roof.

Much information is becoming “Top Tiger Only” and the public is not being allowed much access at this point. Here is the latest update for Shon Coleman . The Auburn Family is pulling for him and his family.

Receiver Philip Pierre-Louis injured his knee in scrimmage last week and had to undergo a medical procedure for repair. It was not the knee he had injured previously. Auburn fans all hope for a speedy recovery. He has had more than his share of bad luck.

Offensive lineman Bart Eddins is also being hampered by a knee injury. He has also been bitten by the injury bug more than his share.

Linebacker Harris Gaston has missed much of the training due to a wrist injury he is recovering from.

Linebacker Daren Bates is still no contact while recovering from post season surgery.

Auburn fans can expect the commitment announcements for some top recruits at the A-Day game. The 2011 recruiting class is looking very strong indeed.

The entire coaching staff has commented at some point of how far the team is ahead of expected progress at this point. It would appear the pre-season excitement around the Auburn football team is well founded.
