The transfer portal has developed into the new "norm" in college athletics, as thousands of student-athletes across various sports are set to represent different universities this upcoming academic year.
Ahead of the 2025 college football season, On3 revealed its Preseason All-Transfer Portal team. Two players with connections to the UNC football program earned spots on the list, one incoming transfer along with another who recently left the program.
Andrew Simpson was one of the biggest additions for the UNC football program this offseason. The Boise State transfer earned a spot on the Butkus Award Watch List ahead of his final season of college eligibility.
