Can Drake Maye Lead the Way?

Posted Aug 23, 2023
Drake Maye hopes to lead UNC to the sort of truly special season that ended up being beyond the reach of T.J. Yates, Mitch Trubisky, and Sam Howell, who all peaked in the 8-4/8-5 range during their time as starters in Chapel Hill. Maye almost turned that trick last season. He became the first UNC player since 1980 to be named ACC player of the year. (Chapelboro.com)
