When Coach Freeze was brought on as the head man on the Plains, he chose Ron Roberts to lead the defense. 

The question was, how quickly would the team adjust to this new defense?

Auburn corner Nehemiah Pritchett joined the On To Victory Podcast to discuss this topic. 

When asked about the new defense by Zac Blackerby, Pritchett responded, "I love the new defense. I feel like it's player friendly. Me being here, I've had three different coordinators, so I've kinda picked different things from different DC's. Most of it is the same, but they call it different stuff. It makes it easier to pick up on it that type of way. But I think it's a plug-and-play defense. We have a really versatile secondary, so at times, I think you can put Keionte (Scott) at corner and me at nickel. I think we'll be all right. We'll be fine." 

It's good to hear that everyone is adjusting to Coach Roberts defense quickly. 

This secondary will be elite in 2023, so hearing that all of these guys are comfortable with what their roles will be has to make Auburn fans feel good about the upcoming season. 

Pritchett and DJ James will be one of the best one-two punches in the country this season. 

Watch out for this Auburn defense in 2023 under coach Ron Roberts.
