How dare you put this on the sidebar. Tats & that far surpass academic fraud and things of that nature. True story b/c the NCAA says so.

Seems like they did a nice job of "Friday afternooning" this story

Why is it always a damn conspiracy with our fanbase? Just wondering.

No conspiracy here, just smart by UNC releasing it when they did. I forget exactly which piece of our "scandal" it was, but we had done the same thing at one point.

"The report, released Friday,...."

It's not a conspiracy theory, it's residual bitterness at how badly it went.

How this doesn't equal death penalty is beyond me. Student athletes? Pfffftttttttt.

vacuuming sucks

I don't think we'll ever see the death penalty again, Maestro. It set SMU back almost 30 years. I do think that these guys will get taken to the woodshed, though. I feel sorry for Fedora, its a situation much akin to what Al Golden inherited in Miami.

Butch Davis runs a tight ship fellas. I'm shocked that the two schools he's coached this past decade are in trouble.

Dustin Fox was our leading tackler as a corner.... because his guy always caught the ball.

ESECpn has us on their front page over losing one recruit, but not a sniff about widespread fraud at Chapel Hill.....smh

I think this just goes to show that no one cares about the ACC or Carolina football at all. What I am curious about is whether any of the bball players got wrapped up in this, that would probably make ESPN's front page (unless Dicky V gets to decide what goes up).
