Again, this guy did everything for Gus Malzahn, and he was just a sophomore. Imagine how great he can be going into this year with more experience.

We already talked about the Tigers not going anywhere in the long-term with Malzahn at the helm. This guy is a major reason why.

Adams had a key sack against Ole Miss when the Tigers squeaked out a win, and he always managed to be all over the field. This is the perfect mix of hype and results actually delivered.

Adams had big expectations coming out of high school, and he also had the prototypical size. To put up these numbers as a sophomore means the sky is the limit as time goes on.

And with more expectations surrounding the football program over the next two years, expect Adams to be at the center of Auburn football talk.
