Mack Brown Wednesday: Players motivating themselves, thinking big-picture, and the kicking game

Posted Oct 16, 2019
North Carolina football coach Mack Brown met with reporters on Wednesday before the Tar Heels travel to Virginia Tech on Saturday. On his injured right eye: "I was on the injury report, but I practiced. I stepped up. They kept staring at me and I finally had to tell them, ‘It is red, you all are right.’ I said, ‘At my age, only Sally cares how I look. So, I’m fine.’" (Heels Maven)
