UNC Basketball Player Preview: Armando Bacot

Armando Bacot committed to the University of North Carolina better than a year ago, and he’s been one of the program’s best recruiters in the 15 months since. Tweeting at and talking to just about every target on the Tar Heels’ recruiting board over the past year, the exuberant young big man has made his presence felt in Chapel Hill, and that’s before even stepping foot onto the basketball court in any official capacity.

Despite being just 19 years of age, Bacot has exhibited behavior on campus and in front of the media that mirrors that of a seasoned veteran.
