New UCLA defensive coordinator D’Anton Lynn has been routinely praised by Bruin defenders this spring as he’s attempted to integrate new concepts.
Dante Moore is talking with Dorian Thompson-Robinson while finding ways to enjoy his time in Los Angeles amid a tense, five-way battle for the UCLA quarterback job.
He talked coverages in-depth as part of the interview process, Lynn said, and acquiesced his background in working with defensive secondaries — also a former cornerback at Penn State — likely played a role in the hire. When asked about defensive changes under Lynn last week, in a textbook Chip-ism, Kelly said his staff had been “conscious not to throw the baby out with the bath water.” Translation: not yet introducing radical new defensive ideas, and sticking to similar schemes and terminology UCLA has employed in the past to not befuddle players.
