Thanks to freshman Kayin Lee, the Auburn defense has been able to minimize the effects of not having Nehemiah Pritchett available.
Auburn junior defensive lineman Justin Rogers spent the offseason cautioning freshman defensive back Kayin Lee not to walk around thinking he’s just some freshman on a SEC football team.
Considering he’s just a rookie, opposing quarterbacks are typically quick to pick on Lee. And such was the case in Berkeley on Saturday night as Cal quarterback Ben Finley targeted Lee during Cal’s very first offensive snap – only for Lee to record the first pass breakup of his college career. Jackson was looking for Cal receiver Brian Hightower on a short throw to the right, but Lee was there to break up the connection.
“It was very important for me being able to get in early, get accustomed to the playbook and the feeling of college,” Lee said Monday. “That was a big bonus coming into college.”Not only did Lee get a head start on the playbook and the day-to-day life of being a college athlete, but enrolling early also gave Lee more opportunities to learn from the veterans on Auburn’s roster – especially guys like Pritchett and James.
