Senior offensive tackle Fahn Cooper didn’t have much time to prepare before being thrust into the starting right tackle role last season after transferring in from junior college. Now with a year in the SEC and a full offseason under his belt, Cooper said he feels much more comfortable.
“Last year I didn’t have spring ball, I just had June and July then we were playing ball,” Cooper said. “Having gone through that whole spring and being around the guys and watching extra film has made it a lot easier.”
While Cooper seemed comfortable at the right tackle spot when he had to move to left tackle in relief of Laremy Tunsil, Cooper struggled and wasn’t nearly as effective, pointing out the Auburn game as a time when he struggled at left tackle.
