Listen: James Whitley Talks Defensive Coverage Breakdowns At Penn State

Former Michigan cornerback James Whitley discusses the breakdowns in the secondary the Wolverines had at Penn State, allowing the Nittany Lions three "big" plays for 115 yards and two touchdowns in a 28-21 loss.

A starter for the Maize and Blue from 1998-2000 and a defensive captain in 2000, Whitley joins Ann Arbor's "Inside the Huddle with Michael Spath" every Wednesday at 12:30pm. You can listen live on 1050AM, on WTKA.com or the WTKA app. 

In today's interview he discusses coordinator Don Brown's gamble of playing four defensive backs against 11 personnel (three wide receives, a tight end and a running back) and how safeties can do a better job covering slot receivers.
