He has stated that he wants to get qb pressure by the front 4.
It was my understanding that Golden wasn't a big blitz guy but he may have done more of it in 2024 because he had the player experience to get away with it.
I'm certainly not defending Ash by any means but Ash doesn't have the same level of player experience that Golden had last year. After seeing the defense in person Saturday, in the 1st half the defense never seemed to get it's shit together pre-snap with lots of player movement in the back 7. That seemed better in the 2nd half but the defense has a long way to go.
On a side note: after re-watching the 1st half, between badly whiffing on a lame tackle attempt on the 1st A&M TD and pulling a WR's (nowhere near the play) helmet off that resulted in a personal foul at the goal line, Gray was a major liability.
