Profiles on UNC's newest members:
Rod Broadway: This Oakboro native, an all-star defensive lineman at UNC, went on to have an outstanding 39-year football coaching career, the only coach to win national black college championships at three different schools. His teams won five national titles— one at Grambling State and two each at N.C. Central and North Carolina A&T. He posted a record 125-45 in 15 years as a head coach.
Davis Love III: Born in Charlotte, Love played college golf at Carolina, where he was a three-time All-America, and then moved on to a great professional career. His 21 wins on the PGA tour includes the 1997 PGA Championship and he was in the top 10 of the official World Golf rankings for over 450 weeks. He captained the U.S. Ryder Cup teams twice and joined the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2017.
Paul Miller: Miller had a stellar career as a three-sport star at Ayden High, starring on unbeaten football and basketball teams, before heading to Carolina where he was a starting quarterback for Bill Dooley-coached teams. He led the ACC in total offense in 1971 as the Tar Heels were 9-3 and went to the Gator Bowl, earning both all-ACC and all-ACC Academic honors. He later earned his law degree from UNC and became highly successful in business.
