WATCH: Defensive Coordinator D'Anton Lynn on Joining UCLA Football

The Bruins' third defensive coordinator in three seasons shared his thoughts on disguising zones and moving from the NFL to college.

UCLA football defensive coordinator D'Anton Lynn spoke with reporters following Thursday morning's spring practice at the Wasserman Football Center. Lynn talked about the first half of camp, the noticeable differences between college and NFL practices, how he is adjusting his scheme to the collegiate level, preparing for his first recruiting trip, what it takes to build a defense on and off the field and the minor position changes he's overseen so far.
