Transfer portal data from CollegeFootballData via the CFB Data Hub. "Undecided" means the player entered the portal without a new school on record yet.

Every North Carolina transfer portal move: the players North Carolina added from other programs and the players who left, with position, star rating and the other school. For high school signees, see the North Carolina recruiting class; for the whole conference, the ACC transfer portal tracker.
