Secondary coach Duane Akina is known for mixing up his players’ positions to get the best DBs on the field and to depth across the secondary. “Coach Akina wants us to be versatile,” senior S Kenny Vaccaro said. “We are in a pass [protection] league. When you look at the quarterbacks we have run through in the last five years, you have to be a versatile [defensive] back. You have to be able to play man-to-man with all of these receivers. It is a pass first league out there.”
