Watching the Navy and Tulsa game it occured to me that at the beginning of the season the DLine was considered the biggest weakness on the team. Lack of depth, inexperience, and suspect athleticism.
I am very impressed watching the DLine develop. Especially Taylor Thompson. That guy has improved dramatically even since the season began. He certainly has size and great atheleticism.
I think our DLine can hang with any in CUSA. Considering the youth we have and the sky is the limit.
This is a very exciting defense to watch.

Frazier has been very good and very consistant.

RGV...I agree, outside of Estonian and Greiner, we are really kinda thin up front, bring in some beef

I believe that I remember reading earlier this year that Jimmy Chase was converted to the DL. He definitely adds some beef!

Starters Thompson, Parham and Frazier have been a nice, solid trio.
Grenier is a good backup, for now, and Hunt has star written all over him as long as we remember his lifetime of football is exactly eight games old.
I like Pittman, and based on what a couple of players have said, Jimmy Chase has real potential for a guy who spent all of high school as a skinny (relatively) offensive lineman. He and Hunt are learning, and could prove to be pretty good before they're through.

Chase hasnt sniffed any PT yet, looks like a player and wud love to see his big body in there, but with Parham and Pittman cloggin middle dont see it. Would love to see Evan Honolulu still in the mix...oh well
