Posted Aug 1, 2024
After spending last season playing the star position for UNC, Alijah Huzzie us back at cornerback where he’s most comfortable, and where he may have an NFL future. "They didn’t really see me at corner last season, but I’ve just got a lot to prove to myself; I’ve got a lot to prove in general," Huzzie said Wednesday night. "Yeah, I think it’s a proving season."
