UNC Defensive Back D.J. Ford Enters Transfer Portal


A little over two months after electing to opt out of the 2020 college football season, UNC defensive back has chosen to go a different route. Ford has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal. A senior this season, Ford decided to opt out of the season on August 7, ahead of the start of the ACC season. The decision came as a bit of a shock to some. (247 Sports)
