Spurrier believes UNC defense will improve
Posted Aug 7, 2015
UNC head coach Larry Fedora brought in former Auburn head coach Gene Chizik, who led the Tigers to a national championship, to run his defense. Chizik, before he took his first head coaching job, had four defensive coordinator positions, including Auburn and Texas. Spurrier believes that Chizik will have the Tar Heels playing much better defense this year, which was by far the worst in the ACC a season ago.
