Posted Apr 6, 2017
UNC lost two defensive line starters from last year’s squad – end Mikey Bart and tackle Nazair Jones – but returns the bulk of its three-deep. Jones and Bart were needed veteran leaders last fall, and Drennon has assumed that role entering his senior season. “I feel like I’m going to step up more as a leader seeing that this is my last season at Carolina,” Drennon said.
