Defensive Coordinator Marvin Sanders trying to tighten defense's focus
Posted Jun 16, 2005
The most important film watched during spring practice by Carolina's defense wasn't a highlight tape. It was a collection of plays the Tar Heel coaches and players never want to see again. When Marvin Sanders gathered his defense for the first time before spring ball, he was staring at a group that had made significant progress over the final month of the season but still finished 109th nationally in total defense. He wanted to show them how close they had been to making the final statistics look very different.
