Kareem Martin picks Tar Heels
Posted Jan 26, 2010
Kareem Martin, who was one of the top uncommitted football defensive linemen in the country, committed to the University of North Carolina on Monday afternoon at a press conference at Roanoke Rapids High. The 6-foot-6, 240-pound defensive end had narrowed his choices to Duke, Virginia Tech and UNC. Martin said he felt comfortable with the Tar Heel coaching staff and its players and that comfort was the final factor in his decision.
