Posted Jan 27, 2022
When Noah Taylor entered his name in the NCAA transfer portal, he assumed he would still return to play another football season at Virginia. Then he visited Chapel Hill. "I walked in through these doors here and I was like, ‘Wow,’" Taylor said Thursday (Video). "I had no idea. When I walked through these doors I was like, ‘There’s no way this is happening.’" (Charlottesville Daily Progress)
