TAMPA, AUG. 31, 2016 – USF’s 4-2-5 defense is ready to pick up where it left off last season with a new coach calling the shots.
Entering his fourth year with the program, Raymond Woodie takes over for Tom Allen as coordinator of USF’s defense that wants to be the aggressor in year two of the scheme that keeps five defensive backs on the field.
“I want them to swarm and punish,” Woodie said. “We want 11 hats around the football.”
The mission of becoming one of the top defenses in the nation begins Saturday night with a test against Towson at Raymond James Stadium.
