Tar Heel Firsts: Mack Brown’s 1988 debut as UNC coach
Posted Aug 24, 2019
On September 3, 1988, Mack Brown made his debut as UNC coach. That day the Heels were tasked with taking on #19 South Carolina in Columbia. The Gamecocks were in the sixth year of coach Joe Morrison’s tenure, and coming off just the third 8+ win season in school history. The home team was the favorite, and quickly went up 10 points in the first quarter.
