UNC Football: Michael Carter will return to Tar Heels in 2020

After North Carolina’s 55-13 victory over Temple in the Military Bowl on Friday, Tar Heels junior running back Michael Carter announced that he would return to the school next fall for his senior season.

Carter broke the news to Heels Maven’s Brant Wilkerson-New in an interview after the game, stating that he would love to play in the NFL, but intends to get his degree before leaving school.
