Tavorris Jolly is no longer with the University of North Carolina football program, Tar Heels coach Butch Davis said Friday. Jolly, a 2006 Shelby High graduate, played in nine games over the previous two seasons as a defensive back, making 10 tackles.

He redshirted during his true freshman season with the Tar Heels. (Gaston Gazette)
