William Mack Brown, born on August 27, 1951, is a highly respected figure in college football, known for his exceptional coaching career. Brown is currently in his second tenure as the head football coach at the University of North Carolina, a position he first held from 1988 to 1997. After a successful stint at North Carolina, he moved on to the University of Texas, where he solidified his legacy as one of the most accomplished coaches in the sport. Brown's return to North Carolina in 2018, after a five-year break from coaching, marked a new chapter in his career, during which he has continued to build on his already impressive resume.

Before his time at Texas and North Carolina, Brown held head coaching positions at Appalachian State and Tulane, where he demonstrated his ability to turn around struggling programs. His tenure at Texas, however, is where he truly made his mark, leading the Longhorns to a national championship in 2006 after an unforgettable victory over the USC Trojans in the Rose Bowl. That game is widely regarded as one of the greatest in college football history, and it cemented Brown's status as a coaching legend. His leadership and strategic acumen were key to Texas' success during his time there.

Brown's accolades are numerous, including the prestigious Paul "Bear" Bryant Award for Coach of the Year in 2006. He also became the first coach in Texas history to achieve 200 career wins, a milestone he reached during the 2008 season. By the time he resigned after the 2013 Alamo Bowl, Brown had become the second-winningest coach in Texas football history, trailing only the legendary Darrell Royal. His impact on the program and the sport as a whole is undeniable, and his legacy continues to grow with each passing season.

Since returning to North Carolina, Brown has become the winningest coach in the program's history, surpassing Dick Crum. As of 2024, he also holds the distinction of having the most career wins among active NCAA Division I FBS football coaches. His ability to adapt and succeed over multiple decades in a constantly evolving sport speaks to his talent, work ethic, and deep understanding of the game. Brown's influence on college football is profound, and his contributions to the sport will be remembered for generations to come.
