UNC Quarterback Drake Maye Declares for 2024 NFL Draft
The outcome of the Duke's Mayo Bowl and whether quarterback Drake Maye plays will have significant implications for the future of the Carolina football program. With the Tar Heels sputtering down the stretch after a strong start, the pressure is on for a win and a successful bowl game. The debate over whether 72-year-old coach Mack Brown should retire or continue coaching is ongoing, and a loss coupled with Maye's absence could intensify calls for change. However, with an interim chancellor coming in, a rebuild under new leadership seems unlikely.
