Brian Newberry wants to establish a new era of Navy football.
The new defensive coordinator promised the Midshipmen are going to play fast and more aggressively after a disappointing 3-10 season in 2018.
Newberry wasted little time putting his stamp on the program in the regular-season opener against Holy Cross Aug. 31. Navy finished with seven tackles for loss, three sacks and one fumble recovery in the 45-7 victory. It was a good start for the revamped unit.
