What's this?

But, a state run institution was not being transparent.

Again, paid employees were not teaching the classes they were supposed to have been teaching. Furthermore, you have state employees acting like Black Santas on the taxpayers' dime. You have admin. officials, including Swofford, collectively engaged in "unethical" activity while receiving state checks. All the while, they were not being transparent about how all that taxpayer money is being spent, which is required.

You can't honestly suggest that all that underhanded activity was going on for TWO decades and nothing crossed the line between illegal and legal.

Furthermore, I think it was at OLe Miss that some of their players were being paid with athletic department money by athletic department employees. That's can't be legal.

I would imagine some of that has occured at UNC too. I don't think there's enough UNC football boosters around to pay for those guys to live it up in Club LIV the way that they were. Where was all that "Black Santa" money and merch. coming from?
