Porter, Brown And UNC Were The Right Match
Posted Feb 4, 2021
When Larry Porter learned running backs coach Robert Gillespie was leaving North Carolina for Alabama, he sent Mack Brown a text message. Porter worked for Brown at Texas in 2013, so he already knew the UNC coach quite well. He also knew if he got a response, there was a chance he’d replace Gillespie as the Tar Heels’ running backs coach.
