Torry Holt joins Tar Heels in New England

Posted Jun 27, 2010
Now, Torry Holt's teammates include Brandon Tate, who is a former UNC player, along with ex-Tar Heels Alge Crumpler and Sam Aiken — all on New England’s offense. That’s quite a bit of rivalry action from Holt’s college days, but he said he enjoys the time with other players with North Carolina roots. “It’s now great to pass it on to them when it’s someone who’s from the same area,” he said of his relationship with Tate. “He’s young. He’s up and coming.” (Burlington Times News)
