Born & Bred: Brady Manek On A Season Of Firsts

Posted Oct 20, 2022
Brady Manek: "I couldn’t have picked a better year to be a Tar Heel. The first time I noticed how different it was to play basketball at Carolina was this past fall at football games. People cheered for the players when they were just walking around the stadium. Even me, and I hadn’t even done anything yet! But that’s the kind of support you get at Carolina." (Rams Club)
