North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye made a clean sweep of the ACC’s Player of the Year awards on Wednesday. The redshirt freshman from Huntersville collected the league’s Rookie of the Year, Offensive Rookie of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year and the coveted Player of the Year honors.
This came a day after he was named all-ACC first team. But there’s one honor he’d like to earn above those, and that chance will come Saturday in Bank of America Stadium when he leads the Tar Heels against Clemson in the ACC championship game.
“It’s been a blessing to be the signal caller for this offense,” Maye said on Tuesday. “And it just shows what this offense can be. It’s just an honor. We got some more work to do, the job’s not finished.”
