"Coach Brown meant the world to me," the New England Patriots' starting quarterback said. "He's probably the main reason I went to North Carolina. Hall of Fame coach. He's done it, and he's such a player's coach. I saw the news and hate it for him. I love Coach and appreciate what he did for me, but I know he left it all out there and he's got no regrets."
Brown coached a total of 16 seasons at Chapel Hill, including three with Maye also on the team. In his two years as a starter, the eventual first-round draft pick led the school to a combined record of 17-9.
However, a lack of success against the ACC and the prospect of a fifth straight season without a bowl game win eventually doomed the 73-year-old.
