Former Texas Longhorns head coach Mack Brown went 11 years without losing a job.
Today, as North Carolina announces the program will go a new direction, the streak ends.
Brown leaves behind a second stint leading the Tar Heels — the first of which ended when he took the job at Texas in 1998 — as well as the winningest record among his former North Carolina head football coach peers.
During his time at Texas from 1998 to 2013, Brown led the Longhorns to two national championship appearances, winning one in 2005 against the back-to-back national champs, USC.
