North Carolina lands another offensive lineman out of transfer portal

The North Carolina Tar Heels’ football program isn’t done adding players out of the transfer portal just yet. On Sunday, they added another player, landing a commitment from a fellow ACC program.

Former Georgia Tech offensive lineman Jakiah Leftwich offered his verbal commitment to the program, becoming the fourth offensive lineman to do so in this transfer cycle. Leftwich is set to graduate from Georgia Tech this Spring and will enroll at UNC, with two years of eligibility left.

The  6-foot-6, 311-pound Leftwich entered the portal in early January and picked up offers right away including from UNC, Boston College, and Oregon State among others. After visits, he made his decision and picked the Tar Heels.
