UConn transfer Alex Oriakhi interested in UNC
Posted Mar 27, 2012
UConn transfer Alex Oriakhi and his father informed InsideCarolina.com on Tuesday evening that North Carolina has not yet made contact, however they confirmed that they are interested in the Tar Heels. With ACC Player of the Year Tyler Zeller graduating, and junior John Henson contemplating a jump to the NBA, UNC could be left with no upperclassmen in its frontcourt and a lot of playing time available for the taking.
