"That we have to keep playing how we are playing," Gary said. "We can only get better. As a defense, I feel like we have yet to play our best game. That's the fun part about it, about football and throughout the season, you're able to get better and better week by week."
Gary has taken freshman defensive end Aidan Hutchinson under his wing so far this season. He said he enjoyed getting to watch Hutchinson play against Nebraska instead of Gary. Getting Hutchinson experience could prove valuable down the road for the Wolverines.
"It's the bigger picture," Gary said. "Aidan (Hutchinson), getting his feet wet and building that confidence and building himself up. Kwity Paye, you know, him building himself up getting his confidence up. Letting them know that they can play in big moments, and we're going to need them down the line.
One might think Gary would hate to come off the field, but he knows how helpful getting the younger ends experience is.
"So, me sitting back and me not taking those reps, I was actually happy because I got a chance to help Aidan see what he sees in the game, help Kwity see what he sees in the game, just hyping them up, getting hype with them and letting them know that while you're on the field, this is yours," Gary said."
Unselfish much? It's just the beginning for this defense..
