North Carolina coach Mack Brown had to clean up remarks he made in which he essentially suggested he would consider resigning as coach after a bad loss to James Madison.
Brown on Saturday told ESPN’s Chris Low that he would not be resigning as head coach after the team’s 70-50 defeat. Brown sparked that speculation himself, as he reportedly told his players that he was willing to quit his job if it would help the team.
Brown did not deny that he made the comments, but made clear that he would be back at it on Monday. He added that he simply told an emotional locker room that he blamed himself for the performance and would resign if he could not fix it.
