In transfer portal news, a former Penn state defender is joining Bill Belichick and the University of North Carolina.

Expected to lead the way in his fourth season is Dani Dennis-Sutton, who could follow in Carter’s footsteps as the first defensive end selected in next season’s draft. Veterans Zuriah Fisher and Enai White are also expected to contribute, and plenty of Penn State fans are excited about when young Max Granville can do in his second season. So, it would have been hard for Mupoyi to break through.
At UNC, Mupoyi will be joining former teammate Smith Vilbert. Vilbert, a fellow defensive end, was with PSU for six seasons before entering the portal this spring.
