Kwiatkowski said he grew up an Earl Campbell fan. He’s always had a curiosity about Texas and when Steve Sarkisian called, he decided to jump at the opportunity. #HookEm

I asked Pete Kwiatkowski about forcing turnovers and how it becomes a part of a defensive culture. He said you work circuits in practice, you talk about, but getting guys to be “ball aware” and always looking for a rip, strip or tip when closing in on a play is the key. #HookEm
