Defense develops in scrimmage

By BRETT VITO / Denton Record-Chronicle

DENTON – The UNT defense bounced back from a rough start to post a solid performance in the first scrimmage of fall practice.

The offense scored on three of its first four possessions before the defense came back to post stops on six consecutive series. Coach Darrell Dickey said he was pleased with his defense's ability to bounce back and saw several players beginning to adapt to their new roles.

Briefly ...

Freshmen Daniel Meager and Matt Phillips, who are battling for the starting quarterback job, worked with the first- and second-team offenses and threw touchdown passes. ... Linebacker Brandon Monroe, one of only three returning defensive starters, missed the scrimmage with a hamstring injury.
