Linebacker is one of NC State’s deepest positions on the roster; however, the Wolfpack will be without veteran back Brock Miller for the 2020 season. Miller announced his decision to enter the NCAA transfer portal, while also thanking the NC State coaching staff. (Update: Miller decided to transfer to Boise State.)
Near the end of January, two NC State defensive linemen — Jeffrey Gunter and Joseph Boletepeli — also entered the NCAA transfer portal.
