Greatest former UNC athlete by state (Massachusetts): Don McCauley

Posted May 23, 2019
Move over O.J. Simpson, Don McCauley just broke your record. That’s what much of the 1970 football season ended up being about for North Carolina. McCauley broke Simpson’s NCAA single season rushing mark by running for 1,720 yards, a number that remains the second highest single-season total in ACC history, and it came in an 11-game season.
