ICTV: Nazair Jones - 'Better Defense, Better Team'
Posted Aug 17, 2015
Sophomore lineman Nazair Jones has witnessed the evolution of UNC's defense. Playing in a new scheme with new coaches is sure to be a change from his first season on the field, but he says the changes are unquestionably for the better. "We've just been working hard, we took over the whole physicality mindset. It's clear to us that this team can be as good as it's defensive line."
