Mack Brown compares UNC RBs Javonte Williams, Michael Carter to USC's Reggie Bush, LenDale White

Posted Feb 26, 2021
"Javonte Williams and Michael Carter changed who we were," Mack Brown said. "We probably couldn't have done it without Sam Howell, the great young freshman quarterback that came in two years ago — and now he's just finished his sophomore year, and he's a guy that'll be a high draft choice next year. He's a guy that's a Heisman candidate." (247 Sports)
