Mack Brown collides with familiar and new every day in the job he wasn’t sure he’d ever have again. Brown once knew Rick Steinbacher as a 21-year-old linebacker. He returned to find a forty-something associate athletic director. Tommy Thigpen was once a captain of Brown’s team. Now Thigpen coaches inside linebackers for Brown’s team. (Sports Illustrated)
