UNC football pressing corners Marcus Allen, Alijah Huzzie into action for 2024 season

Posted Aug 9, 2024
As football terms go, it’s pretty basic: press coverage. As a defensive back, you line up close to the receiver at the line of scrimmage, bump him after the snap, try to knock him off stride, blow up quick-hitting pass plays. Rattle him, be a disrupter. UNC plans to do a lot more of that this season under Tar Heels’ new defensive coordinator Geoff Collins. (MSN.com)
