CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina has agreed to a one-year contract extension with football coach Mack Brown through the 2026 season.
The school said Wednesday the agreement keeps Brown’s contract length at five years.

Brown is 21-17 in the past three seasons and the Tar Heels’ latest recruiting class ranked No. 9 nationally on 247sports as of midday Wednesday.
