When I was going through the roster to refresh my memory on the state of the Defensive Line this season, I was honestly shocked at how few names I recognized. It stands to reason, though; we had an extremely experienced, extremely good D-Line last year, anchored by now professional dream-killer (I hope, anyway) Duke Ejiofor.
Whether or not I recognize many names isn’t a huge deal, though. Linemen almost always red-shirt, especially at a program like Wake, and I honestly feel like anyone could blow up at any time.
Also, the names I did recognize either had big plays, played a lot of snaps, or both.
