Provo • BYU’s spring football practices this month have mostly been about the offense after Jeff Grimes was hired to replace Ty Detmer and made sweeping changes to the offensive staff and the Cougars’ attack.
BYU’s defense, which had a role in the woeful 4-9 season but did not get as much blame as the offense did, is not standing pat either, linebackers coach Ed Lamb said Monday.
“Both in terms of personnel and tactically, we want to grow a little bit as well,” Lamb said. “Coach [Kalani] Sitake is getting a little more involved now, and some of the things he has in common with coach [Ilaisa] Tuiaki we have moved into more than before.
