Bryn Renner very familiar with JMU defense
Posted Aug 31, 2011
Over in Chapel Hill Bryn Renner takes over after T.J. Yates held the job for four years. And not only does he think he's facing a tough opponent in his first game as a starter, he's facing a team he knows very well. "They're very fast. Very physical. They beat Virginia Tech last year and we're very aware of that. We're not going to take them lightly at all, they're a great team," Renner said.
