Mack Brown rejuvenated the Texas Longhorns during his 16 years from 1998-2013, including leading the program to its last national championship.

Mack Brown 's legendary run in Austin ended in 2013 after 16 seasons with the Texas Longhorns. Brown won't exceed 16 seasons in Chapel Hill after Tuesday's dismissal as head coach at North Carolina.

Brown as recently as Monday said he planned to return next season, but Bubba Cunningham, the UNC athletic director, informed Brown later Monday that “he will not return as head coach.”
