The UNC football program suffered a major loss when edge rusher Beau Atkinson elected to enter the transfer portal.
Once he entered his name into the portal, Atkinson became one of the most sought-after players on the market. It didn't take long for him to find a new home, landing with the reigning national champion Ohio State Buckeyes.
Even though he's only been with the program for a few months, head coach Ryan Day spoke very highly of his new edge rusher, citing how he's quickly developed into a leader for this year's team.
Ryan Day said Beau Atkinson has stood out since transferring from North Carolina to Ohio State this summer.
