Blitz-Heavy Scheme Fits Trey Morrison's Skillset

Posted Mar 13, 2019
Now, in year two, Trey Morrison has to adjust to a new scheme, a new defensive coordinator, and a new cornerbacks coach as he begins to take more of a leadership role. "The new scheme is real different," Morrison said after a recent spring practice. "Playing nickel, I am really everywhere on the field, in coverage, and I blitz way more. It is different, I like it a lot." (Inside Carolina)
