Ole Miss transfer Miles Battle isn't Clark Phillips III.
It's a place where he's had to learn to run more being in a man coverage system as opposed to Ole Miss' primarily zone coverage defense. It's partially what attracted him to Utah because it's a system that gets him closer to what NFL teams run."I'm yelling constantly at Miles ... and I won't shut up, and I won't stop," Shah said.
"He has a very high aptitude," Shah said. "His physical skill set allows him to do things nobody else in the room can. And so getting him to be a better tackler, to get off blocks and use his length to his advantage, as well as believe that effort will win games if your effort is always at the maximum, I think we're allowing him to be the player he wants to be."
Texas Tech running back Cam'Ron Valdez watches the ball fly away after it was popped out of his grip by Mississippi cornerback Miles Battle, left, as they entered the end zone during the second half of the Texas Bowl NCAA college football game Wednesday Dec. 28, 2022, in Houston. "He's the kind of person that sits in the room and says, 'You know, coach, if we thought about it like this' — and he drops a little nugget on you," Shah said.
"I've come from a couple different defensive schemes, so just being able to see how other people run things and then just asking those questions that I've got a different point of view, because I've played at another place and with different coordinators, so it's just being able to have those open conversations with coach," Battle said.
