What's this?

There is/was a faction of the NCAA that couldn't stomach UNCs BS


That faction finally lost. As a fan of a member of that tarnished organization I'm glad they put up the fight. I wish they would've had the moral fortitude to push further but I think the lawyers and accountants finally convinced them to end it. Windmill tilting can get expensive.

It had EVERYTHING to do with athletics. This doesn't happen if it weren't for athletes needing to stay eligible.

The NCAA played brinkmanship, daring and forcing UNC to take the Carolina Way and wipe their butts with it and wipe they did.

"Is this academic fraud? Yes, it is by a normal person's standards. But by the NCAA definition [it is not]." --Bubba Cunningham, UNC AD

If a school is going to be this brazen and hypocritical the least the NCAA could do was call them on it. They did the least they could do.
