What's it like to be recruited to play basketball at UNC?

Posted Nov 2, 2024
In 2022, former UNC basketball standout Armando Bacot tweeted, "If you don’t want to commit to UNC, don’t visit because if you do, you will." When freshman center Blanca Thomas visited Chapel Hill, she felt something pulling her to be there. It was the same for freshman men's basketball forward James Brown. And for sophomore forward Ciera Toomey. (Daily Tar Heel)
