Auburn Tigers News: Keldric Faulk talks growth, AU availability report vs. Kentucky
In today's edition of Auburn Tigers News, Keldric Faulk talks about his growth as a player and the Tigers release the availability report ahead of the Kentucky matchup
Since his freshman year on the Plains, defensive end Keldric Faulk has been an impact player for the Auburn football program. He lived up to the high expectations placed on him as a true freshman, and this year has become a regular starter on the Tigers' defense.
"Last year I was not a great pass rusher at the beginning of the year," Faulk said, per Auburn Undercover. "I was still kinda timid as far as pass rushing, but as the season went on, it all of the sudden got comfortable for me. Now it just feels natural going out there and working certain moves on third down, transitioning from run to pass on first and second down, that's where I feel like the most growth in my game has come from."
Faulk went on to say that high school ball and college ball can't really be compared, and he credits his coaches Vontrell King-Williams and Josh Aldridge for helping him take the steps to be great at this level.
