A Journey & A Reward For UNC Football

Posted Dec 2, 2019
Mack Brown has been working to build a standard in the UNC Football program that wasn’t there when he took over on Nov. 27, 2018. While 6-6 might not look great on paper, the Tar Heels have been in every game this season, losing six games by a combined 26 points. They’ve met Brown’s standard and reached one of their goals of making a bowl. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
