SEATTLE (AP) – Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Kentwan Balmer says he hasn't spoken with the NCAA about an investigation at North Carolina.

Former college teammate Cam Thomas has said that Balmer paid for Thomas and current Tar Heel Marvin Austin to travel to California to train last summer. In an interview with The Associated Press, the former first-round draft pick wouldn't say whether he paid for the trip and adds that he hasn't even been contacted by the NCAA.

Former North Carolina football player Kentwan Balmer paid for his college teammates, Marvin Austin and Cam Thomas, to travel to California in the summer of 2009, Thomas said Tuesday.

Thomas, a rookie defensive tackle for the San Diego Chargers, did not provide financial details, or the dates, but said he and Austin worked out at the Proactive Sports Performance in Westlake Village, Calif. in the summer before the 2009 season.

E.J. Wilson didn't get a chance to play for Pete Carroll in college but the North Carolina defensive end will in the pros.

The Seattle Seahawks picked Wilson in the fourth round of the NFL Draft on
Saturday. Wilson was one of two UNC defensive linemen selected on the
draft's third day. Defensive tackle Cam Thomas went in the fifth round
to the San Diego Chargers.
