Focused on Tar Heel Culture, Mack Brown is determined for UNC to contend for an ACC Championship

Mack Brown, whose charismatic style and disciplined approach propelled the University of North Carolina to the Top Five and the University of Texas to the 2005 BCS National Championship, began his second stint as head coach in Chapel Hill on Nov. 27, 2018. A 46-year veteran of collegiate coaching, Brown has served as a head coach for 35 seasons with stops at Texas (1998-2013), North Carolina (1988-97, 2019-23), Tulane (1985-87), and Appalachian State (1983). Over his 35 seasons, Brown has posted a record of 282-149-1 (.654). Those 282 career victories rank seventh on the FBS all-time list and are the most among active coaches. The 2005 Paul W. “Bear” Bryant National Coach of the Year and the 2008 Bobby Dodd National Coach of the Year, Brown is one of a handful of coaches in college football history to lead two separate programs to Top-Five national finishes and is one of three active coaches to win a National Championship.
