Recruiting History: Mark Maye, The Coveted Quarterback

Posted May 15, 2020
The first recruiting letter that former North Carolina quarterback Mark Maye received wasn’t from UNC coach Dick Crum or football coaches at in-state schools like N.C. State, Wake Forest, Duke, and East Carolina. It wasn’t even from a football coach. “I still remember when Coach (Dean) Smith wrote me a letter during my sophomore year,” Maye said. (Inside Carolina)
