Michigan defensive coordinator Greg Robinson: 'Every year is different'

By Dave Birkett

Michigan lost three of its best players - Brandon Graham, Donovan Warren and Stevie Brown - off a defense that allowed the second-most points in school history. Defensive coordinator Greg Robinson was asked Thursday why fans should believe the defense will be better this year.

Now I'm more worried than I was before. He has no clue of what they have or he won't admit that they are gonna be worse.

I find it interesting that when Robinson is asked about the defense, he talks about what he sees good from the entire team. Contrast that w/the head coach who completely ignored the defense and admitted it. Makes you wonder a little bit.

'the players understand the expectations'.... 'and they are having fun'..... that is the recipe as any good coach knows - of success! Coach Robinson - great................Players atmosphere, expectations,fun - fantastic
