2015 Football Preview: Defensive Line
Posted Aug 21, 2015
If UNC is to improve along the defensive line, they will have to do it with a deep but inexperienced group of players. Jessie Rogers is the only senior on the two-deep chart, joined by juniors Mikey Bart and Junior Gnonkonde. The remainder of the two-deep is filled out with sophomores Nazair Jones, Dajuan Drennon, and Tyler Powell, and redshirt freshmen Robert Dinkins and Jeremiah Clarke.
