Tar Heels turn to Conner Harrell at QB after Max Johnson’s season-ending injury

Posted Sep 3, 2024
Mack Brown said quarterback Max Johnson will remain for a week or two in Minnesota, where UNC has left an assistant trainer behind to stay with Johnson until he’s able to return to Chapel Hill. Now it’s up to Harrell, a third-year sophomore who will make his second career start Saturday against Charlotte. "He’s been told: ‘You’ve got it,’" Brown said. (Associated Press)
