bob candidates clearly confidence defense defensive definitely evident fact factors foundation four growing players playing season sensitive understanding watch week
I was very sensitive to the fact of going with four coordinators in four years in the past. As the week went on, I was able to watch more and more defensive film with the other candidates and with Bob and it was clearly evident that the defense was growing as the season went on.

Big plays are such a huge factor in the outcome of games. It is so difficult to go the distance on a defense.
