North Carolina has specific criteria for their two different tiers of jerseys hung in the Dean Dome.
To have your number "retired" (and hung in the Dean Dome), you have to meet one of these criteria:
AP PoY; Naismith PoY; Wooden Award; Sporting News PoY; Oscar Robertson Trophy; NABC PoY
To have your jersey "honored" by being hung in the the Dean Dome, you must meet one of these criteria:
Member of a gold medal-winning Olympic team; MVP of a National Championship-winning team; 1st or 2nd-team consensus All-America; ACC PoY; NCAA Tournament MOP
If UD did the same, Obi would be the only "retired" jersey,
"Honored" would be Don May, Don Meineke, Jim Paxson, & Bill Uhl.
All were consensus 2nd-team All-American. Since UD joined a conference in 1988, no UD player besides Obi has won conference player of the year.
