But I have no doubt that he will, and that he’s going to continue to develop and mature as a quarterback and a leader.” Away from football, Noland enjoys working out, reading and playing video games. His favorite foods are seafood and trail mix. He has a 3.6 GPA and plans on majoring in marketing in college. His parents are Audrey Gill and Prentiss Noland.”
