Clelin Ferrell learned a lot in his first college game Saturday night at Auburn, but the main thing he learned is to trust his coaches even more than he already did.
The redshirt freshman defensive end from Richmond, Virginia, praised defensive ends coach Marion Hobby and defensive coordinator Brent Venables for the Tigers’ strong defensive showing in a 19-13 win.
Ferrell made his first start in the win, while the Tigers showcased their young but talented new-look defensive line.
“I definitely learned that I can play at this level. And I would definitely say that the coaches really put us in a good position to win if we listen to what they tell us to do,” Ferrell said.
