Chansky’s Notebook: Mack Brown Embracing Race

Posted Jun 28, 2022
Mack Brown’s commitment to HBCU football is a family thing. When Brown met his wife Sally on a blind date back in 1992, he found a woman who knew next to nothing about the game he was coaching at UNC. But she knew something about a problem he was having with his team. It led Brown to become one of the great recruiters in college football. (Chapelboro.com)
