Graham kept his job, but defensive coordinator Keith Patterson moved down to linebackers coach and offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey left the program for the same position at Auburn, putting holes in the two most important spots on Graham’s staff.
The voids were filled by Baylor defensive coordinator Phil Bennett and Alabama wide receivers coach Billy Napier. And without much time in Tempe, the duo seems to be quickly getting something out of their players.
Improvement.
Throughout fall practice, players have been raving about how well they, and the rest of the team, are doing in the new systems and routines put in place by Bennett and Napier.
