Jay Bateman discusses UNC's defensive progress, depth, freshmen, and more
Posted Aug 15, 2019
North Carolina defensive coordinator Jay Bateman spoke with the media after Thursday's practice. On where the defense is overall: "I think we’re improving — I don’t think your’e ever comfortable — so I think we’re improving, I think they understand 'why' more, I think they’re able to do it on their own more. When they take ownership of it, it’s really good."
