Chansky’s Notebook: The Star That Rose

Posted Aug 15, 2018
Mack Brown watched Larry Fedora’s team practice on Saturday, spoke to the players, and then was honored at a dinner that evening. Brown may have earned his Hall of Fame nomination on his record at Texas after leaving Chapel Hill in 1997, but he won’t soon forget his time here. UNC knew it could not keep him forever. But Tar Heels are grateful they had him at all. (Chapelboro.com)
