UNC defensive coordinator Gene Chizik wants more physical, faster defensive play
Posted Aug 11, 2023

The more you get accustomed to calls and adjustments and things of that nature, then naturally our expectation is to play faster. I feel like, so far in camp, when you stack the reps from the spring and camp together, we are playing faster."
