In this story:


Brian Battie comes to Auburn as a top-ten returning running back in college football based on the yards he had last season at USF. 

Battie ran for 1,186 yards last season for South Florida, which is the ninth-most among returning running backs in college football.

Hugh Freeze gave injury updates for Auburn and said Battie had an off-season foot procedure but will hopefully be good to go sooner than later.

Freeze's quote on Battie's injury was, "(Battie) is going to suck it up and go. You know, I wish I felt a little better about his surgery, and maybe I'm just pushing it a little too. I want it faster."

This quote shows you just how much Freeze likes Battie and what he can do for the Tigers on the field this season. 

If Battie can get healthy, he can help Auburn in the running and return games. 

A healthy Battie will do a lot for this Auburn football team in 2023.
