I am watching both of these teams play and they play hard and sound. They may lose but they are competitive. I can’t believe they have that much talent more talent than Tennessee. Is that what good coaching looks like?

Good coaching going for 2 when you are outplaying another team is good coaching? Right...

Another mistake by Brown.

If you know you are going for it on 4th when you have 2nd and 1, then dont throw a pass on second and a qb run on 3rd, then finally decide to run on 4th.

Just idiotic.

Mack did well at more than one program.

69-46 with no division or conference titles isn’t exactly “well”......


Also, Phil waited his turn to take over the Alma mater instead of going into coaching early. Sure Phil only has 1 program vs 2 to compare to Brown, but let’s not act like Mack tore it up at UNC

Mack took a nothing UNC program to top3 in the nation I believe.

Fulmer never did anything like that.

Seems like people are worried that bragging on Mack makes JP look bad. He does not need any help with that.

Mack is a couple of wins away from being UNC all time winningest coach. They are a crap football school year in and out and he inherited a mess both stints there.

Saying he should have won the ACC is like saying Kirby Smart is a bad coach because he hasn't win the SEC. FSU went years without losing a conference game back in the day.

Kirby Smart has won the SEC. In his second year. With Mark Richt’s players and a freshman qb.

But People are acting like Mack Brown is no good because he built a basketball school into being competitive in football, but didn’t win a championship there. And this is part of the problem for Volnation. We defend JP because ‘Who are you going to bring in that is gonna win championships?’. Ummm, we just need to get 6 wins in a season first. From what I’ve seen during the 16 game career of JP, we are going to need a lot of cupcakes on the schedule to get to 6 wins in a season. Of course we did that this year and have lost 2/3rds of the cupcakes.

I got absolutely horse laughed when I mentioned Bronco Mendenhall.. People kept saying he cannot recruit in the South, well he seems to be doing a damn fine job.

I'm with you on that, Bronco MendenHall is a good coach, with the coolest name for a coach. He did well at BYU and has shown steady improvement at UVA, which was a dumpster fire when he got there.

He was out of the game for how long Post Texas? Also, had he not been at UNC, Brown likely doesn’t get an offer.

Regarding Phil, does anyone know how serious he was about coaching at other schools? I ask that seriously.

Phil did go and interview Minnesota. I believe his exact words were he was going to "interview them ". Anyways, after his interview he said Minnesota wasn't a good fit.

Earlier in his career? Sure.

But Brown’s “rebuild” of UNC has a ways to go.

Agreed. All of this Mack is Back crap needs to stop. They’re luck not to be 0-5, but you know they played hard this week after getting beat by App last week. UNC is about the 4th or 5th best team in the their own state .

Everybody remember when Kiffin coached us up against Bama or Dooley coached us up against LSU or Butch versus UGA ? The results all had one thing in common.

Our roster and talent are nothing compared to what smart took over, not by a hell of a long shot.

Took him a while the first time around as well. Brown was 1-10 each of his first two years at UNC (only 1 ACC win in 2 years). Spurrier beat him 41-0 at Chapel Hill when he was at Duke and posed the whole Duke team for a photo below the scoreboard. Brown was about as popular then as Pruitt is now among many UT fans. Even the media joked about him. But he improved each year after that, and his last team at UNC in 1997was arguably the best team ever at UNC.

Watch Washington State play...now who is their coach???

I watched it. Wazzu's defense looked pretty bad. I am surprised Utah won because Utah lost to USC, and I read on here several times that USC sucks.

I guess I'm just glad teams still put on the pads and play the game and (hopefully) tune out all the BS about who sucks and what's going to happen.

Anything can happen in college football on a given day, and that's one of the reasons I watch..

GO VOLS.

Does someone really have to start a damn thread everytime an underdog even comes close to winning?! Then compare them to Tennessee. Just stop!!

It so trivial, they compare scores to fit the narrative but when you turn it on them they don't have a answer. GBO!
