He coached at the University of North Carolina in two separate periods, first from 1988 to 1997 and again from 2019 until his firing at the end of the 2024 season. In his second stint at North Carolina, Brown became the program’s all-time winningest coach, passing Dick Crum for the most victories in school history. His long coaching career is tied to the Tar Heels and to his place among the most successful figures in the program’s record book.
