From fishing to the football field, tight end Bryson Nesbit brings consistency to UNC

Posted Aug 27, 2024
Before summer football meetings begin at 6:30 a.m., Bryson Nesbit often treks outside with a fishing pole in hand to reach his happy place. During the offseason, the senior tight end turned to fishing as an outlet to find an escape from the constant grind of college football. "I just love being out there. Love going by myself — just me and my thoughts." (Daily Tar Heel)
