Utah Defensive Coordinator Kalani Sitake joined Gunther and Graham Tuesday on 1320 KFAN to discuss his defense as camp continues. A few thoughts:
-Sitake was pleased with the way his defense performed in the latest scrimmage but feels like the linebackers still need to grow and improve.
-In response to Kyle Gunther’s question about whether rotating up to nine defensive lineman is too many Sitake said “don’t count your reps, make your reps count.” He went on to say that guys like Star Lotulelei, Trevor Reilly and Nate Fakahafua will only come out when they’re tired.
-Kevin Graham asked about the process of a coach breaking kids down during camp and then building them back up to which he responded that they recruit tough kids that can go through the grind and the buildup is the reward making it to the end.
