Allen Finds ‘Right Fit’ in New Defensive Coordinator

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Charlton Warren didn't come to Indiana, didn't give up a great coaching job at Georgia, to back down.

The Hoosiers new defensive coordinator will recruit for and against the best. He will push to elevate a difference-making defense (see last year's national-best 17 interceptions). He will challenge, build and tweak, but not reinvent.

In other words, offenses beware.

"I'm super competitive, man," Warren said during Wednesday's introduction press conference. "Don't play me in checkers. I want to win."

Warren honed that competitiveness while coaching defensive backs the last two seasons at Georgia, and the secondary before that at Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina and Nebraska.
