Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 1859635, member: 874"] It's interesting some people are concerned about how long it will take White to learn the defense. As freshman Mali and Lydon didn't have long to learn it and Battle won't have any longer this year. I would think a veteran guy that is already used to the speed/physicality of the college game will pick it up faster than freshman that have to acclimate to playing against better talent as well as learn a certain system. Quite often defense is about hustle. Mali was inconsistent with that last year and I don't know that another year would have improved his want-to. White will pick up the system as the year goes along and have it down just fine by the time it really matters. [/QUOTE]
