“Any time you change quarterbacks, it’s not an easy decision.” Those words spoken this morning by Auburn Coach Gus Malzahn when he announced that redshirt freshman, Sean White would be the starter Saturday against Mississippi State.
Auburn’s Jeremy Johnson has struggled in the Tigers first three games. But Malzahn added, “This isn’t an emotional decision. You do what you feel like is best for the situation,” adding JJ “will support Sean.”
“I feel like (Sean) needs a shot right now,” said Malzahn. “He’s our starting quarterback going into this game. We’ll get behind him and I know his teammates will also.
