2012 SG Omar Calhoun receiving "a lot of interest" from UNC

Posted Mar 5, 2011
Omar Calhoun, who is averaging 20 points, 7 rebounds, 3 steals and 3.5 assists a game while shooting 50% from the field, 40% from beyond the arc and 80% at the charity stripe, is also on pace to finish as the school’s all-time leading scorer. “Right now North Carolina and Kentucky haven’t offered, but I stay in contact with them. And they call, especially North Carolina, and they have shown a lot of interest in him. Roy Williams has seen him a few times, basically we’ve been in touch with them as long as we’ve been in touch with Pittsburgh,” said Omar Sr. (NBE Basketball Report)
