Eagles LB Zach Brown committed to UNC after Tennessee misspelled his name

Posted Sep 15, 2019
If you want Zach Brown to play for you, spelling his name correctly is a non-negotiable. Brown revealed the reason he became a North Carolina Tar Heel instead of a Tennessee Volunteer when he was part of the 2008 recruiting class. "Yeah. They put a 'K' on my ****. And their graduation percent was like ****** 6 or something horrible." (Warning: Language) (Knoxville News Sentinel)
