UNC honors Tez Walker on pregame warmup shirts after ineligibility ruling

Posted Sep 16, 2023
Mack Brown and North Carolina are continuing to honor wide receiver Tez Walker, who’s waiver to play this season was denied. Prior to Saturday’s game against Minnesota, the Tar Heels repped shirts pregame with Walker’s last name and jersey number. This comes after Carolina decked their helmets out with a decal to honor Walker last week, as well. (On3.com)
