Brown recalled the night as “special” and then called Young possibly the best college football quarterback ever.
That was one special night. @VinceYoung10 is one of, if not, the best to ever do it. Love you, my friend. https://t.co/cIsDRQFSty

Young was a star that season and true dual-threat QB. He passed for 3,036 yards and 26 touchdowns, while rushing for 1,050 yards and 12 touchdowns in the junior season. He recently returned to a role with the school’s athletic department. Brown is entering his third season as North Carolina’s head coach.
