Watson and Mack Brown were always together growing up in Putnam County, Tennessee, playing together on the football field, basketball court, and baseball diamond. The brothers were on the same team from little league until their time together at Vanderbilt, and the bond they shared set in motion the success both would enjoy throughout their lives.
