Josh Aldridge interview takeaways: Eugene Asante praise, LB depth, infectious energy and more

Auburn football linebacker coach Josh Aldridge met the media on Thursday as the Tigers inch closer towards their first fall camp scrimmage on Saturday inside Jordan-Hare Stadium. Here are the highlights of what Aldridge said, including serious praise for some his linebackers, high-motor players, growth in learning the defense and more. "I think we’re getting a lot better in terms of picking things up in this defense," Aldridge said. "The linebacker, there’s a lot on his plate. What I want to see is things carry over from the spring and slowly, but surely we’re not making the same mistakes and that’s what I’m seeing. We have quality depth, a lot of guys competing, which is good."
