William Mack Brown (born August 27, 1951) is an American former college football coach. Brown most recently coached at the University of North Carolina, where he had two stints, first from 1988 until 1997, and again from 2019 until his firing at the end of the 2024 season. During his second stint in Chapel Hill, Brown became the North Carolina Tar Heels football program's all-time winningest coach, passing Dick Crum for most wins in program history. Brown is perhaps most well known for his tenure at the University of Texas at Austin, where he coached the Texas Longhorns from 1998 until 2013, winning two Big 12 Conference championships, and a national championship in 2005. His 2005 Texas Longhorns football team won the 2006 Rose Bowl, in what has been considered the greatest game in college football history, to win the national title. Prior to his head coach positions at Texas and North Carolina, Brown was head football coach at Appalachian State University for one season, in 1983, and at Tulane University from 1985 to 1987. While at Tulane, he also served as the school's athletic director. He is credited with revitalizing the North Carolina and Texas football programs. In 2006, he was awarded the Paul "Bear" Bryant Award for "Coach of the Year". Brown achieved his 200th career win during the 2008 season, making him the first Texas coach to reach that mark. He resigned after the 2013 Alamo Bowl, leaving as the second-winningest coach in program history (11 wins behind Darrell Royal).
