CLEMSON – At some point this week, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney will look down at his phone and see that he’s received a text from North Carolina head coach Mack Brown. Swinney will reply to the text and ask Brown the three keys for beating the Tar Heels.
Brown coached the Tar Heels from 1988-1997, amassing a 69-46-1 record during his tenure. He followed that up with a 16-year stay at Texas where he fashioned a National Championship and a 158-48 mark. Brown then worked as an analyst at ESPN before accepting a return to Chapel Hill last November.
