Posted Jun 7, 2023
"I definitely put some thought into what I wanted to do, versus last year when I knew I wanted to come back," Armando Bacot said. "But it was just hard for me to be able to give up what I have in North Carolina. I mean, everything is perfect for me. It’s challenging. Fans love me, the school loves me, and I love this state. So I’m just glad to be back." (Inside Carolina)
