Quarterback Conner Harrell replaces injured Max Johnson in UNC's win at Minnesota

Posted Aug 30, 2024
With his starting signal caller injured, Mack Brown searched for backup quarterback Conner Harrell in the sea of UNC players, only to find him already warming up. Before Harrell joined the huddle on the field in the third quarter, Brown reminded him of his talent. That he was ready for this moment. Harrell’s reply was simple: "We’re good, coach."
