Second-year stars: North Carolina
Posted May 12, 2014
The freshmen who played last season are all expected to take a big step forward in 2014, particularly the defensive backs. Brian Walker will see his role increase significantly alongside Desmond Lawrence. Dajaun Drennon could fill a role in a depleted group of defensive ends, R.J. Prince is pushing for a starting job on a thin line, and Lucas Crowley projects to take over as the starting center.
