UNC's Armando Bacot raising money to help others through NIL

Posted Sep 29, 2022
Armando Bacot clearly has cashed in on the NCAA's new NIL rules, but he's also using NIL to raise money for others. "Out of all my partnerships this is probably the most important," Bacot said outside UNC Hospital. Bacot has just finished class and is spending the morning with ten year old Mason Fannin as part of his deal with the Me Fine Foundation. (WRAL Sports Fan)
