Former North Carolina Central cornerback Bryan Mills played only one season for the Eagles, but he made the most of the season. He was named to the BOXTOROW HBCU Football All-America Team after tying for the MEAC lead with five interceptions and breaking up eight passes. When COVID-19 wiped out the fall 2020 season, Mills decided to start training for the 2021 National Football League Draft. He was invited to the Reese’s Senior Bowl where he performed well. He has a good chance to be drafted.

Mills talked with BOXTOROW host Donal Ware about NCCU being the only Division I program to offer him a scholarship, about the one year he played at NCCU, his preparation for the draft, and about the talent level in the MEAC.
