UNC Basketball Faces Reality Check

Posted Dec 2, 2022
Armando Bacot was open about what ails the Tar Heels, his injuries, and that the team simply must fix what is wrong. He was optimistic, but he was also honest. "It’s obviously tough, and we’re all upset about it. We’re playing hard, but it’s the small details that are just not clicking for us right now. We’re not going to quit. It’s a long season, but it’s unfortunate." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
