Cameron Calhoun (born October 2, 2004) is an American college football cornerback who most recently played for the Utah Utes. He previously played for the Michigan Wolverines.

Early life

[edit]

Calhoun attended Winton Woods High School in Cincinnati, Ohio, and was rated as a three-star recruit.[1] He held over 20 NCAA Division I offers, which he trimmed to a final four of Boston College, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, and West Virginia.[1][2] Calhoun initially committed to play college football for the West Virginia Mountaineers.[1] However, he flipped his commitment to the Cincinnati Bearcats.[3] A few months later, Calhoun de-committed from Cincinnati.[4] Ultimately, Calhoun made his final decision to commit to play college football for the Michigan Wolverines.[5]

College career

[edit]

Michigan

[edit]

As a freshman in 2023, Calhoun appeared in just two games where he recorded no statistics for the Wolverines as he won a National Championship with the team.[6] After the conclusion of the 2023 season, Calhoun entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal.[7]

Utah

[edit]

Calhoun transferred to play for the Utah Utes.[8] After starter Kenan Johnson went down with a season-ending injury in the 2024 season opener, Calhoun entered the Utes' rotation.[9] In week three, Calhoun got his first collegiate interception in a win over Utah State.[10]

On December 10, 2024, Calhoun announced that he would enter the transfer portal.[11]
