Ice Cream, Cookies, & Popsicles The Reward For Creating An Edge

Posted Apr 15, 2022
"We’ve always said you have to compete with everything you do every day in practice," UNC Football coach Mack Brown said. "If you don’t have a score and you say offense got one, defense got one, it’s not real. We give the winners a reward after every game. It’s ice cream, popsicles, cookies. And as simple as it seems, all these guys love to compete." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
