The headline from Jon Rothstein’s interview with UNC basketball coach Hubert Davis released Monday (Audio) was when the first-year coach casually mentioned that center Armando Bacot would come back next season. Bacot, who has played two seasons at UNC, was generally expected to return even though he is going through the NBA draft process. (Tar Heel Tribune)
