UNC Defensive Line Features Trifecta of Depth, Talent and Experience

Posted Jul 10, 2014
The probable choices for UNC's defensive tackle positions are two hefty seniors. Ethan Farmer, at 6 feet, 3 inches and 295 pounds, and Shawn Underwood, at 6 feet, 1 inch and 300 pounds, should provide solid experience for the unit. Farmer took to the field in all 12 games in 2013 and Underwood saw action in eight contests. But the pair of seniors will have younger athletes nipping at their heels. (Chapelboro.com)
