Cleve Bryant (March 27, 1947 – January 31, 2023) was an American college football player and coach.
Bryant was the wide receiver coach at Texas under John Mackovic from 1992 to 1994, before he joined Brown's staff at North Carolina.
[1] Bryant attended Ohio University, where he earned all-conference honors in 1967 as the quarterback, while leading the Bobcats to a conference title.
The following year, he left to accept a position coaching the quarterbacks at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
[3] In 1982, Bryant left Chapel Hill to become the running backs coach for the New England Patriots.
[6] While readily admitting his less-than-stellar record in the win-loss department, Bryant still believed he had something to be proud of from those days.
