AUSTIN, Texas — Chris Ash is happy about the progress of his defense.
Set to participate in the third and final scrimmage of preseason camp on Saturday, the new Texas Longhorns defensive coordinator spoke with the media on Wednesday and told reporters that his group is ahead of schedule despite not going through spring practice.
“I can tell you right now where we’re at today — I’m very pleased and pleasantly surprised that we are, further along than what I thought we would have been. And that’s a credit to the players,” Ash said.
“They have bought into what we’re doing, they’ve spent an insane amount of time on their learning what we’re asking them to do.
