To understand why UNC quarterback Drake Maye stayed all you have to do is look in the stands where you'll find his parents, Aimee and Mark Maye, at every game. "I know people talk about their school is like a family," Aimee said. "It really is at Carolina." Mark was UNC's starting quarterback in 1986 and 1987. Aimee was a great athlete in her own right.
