Let A be the focus of the parabola $\displaystyle y^2=8 x$. Let the line $\displaystyle y=\mathrm{m} x+\mathrm{c}$ intersect the parabola at two distinct points B and C. If the centroid of the triangle ABC is $\displaystyle \left(\frac{7}{3}, \frac{4}{3}\right)$, then $\displaystyle (\mathrm{BC})^2$ is equal to :
