    Can't help wondering how many of those UNC basketball players would have been ineligible without these paper classes.

    I hope the NCAA throws the book at UNC, but we all know that isn't going to happen. Instead it will be a tap (not even a slap) on the wrist and forge ahead as if nothing happened.

    Could the NCAA hammer UNC like they did Clem Haskins and Minnesota in the late 1990's for "lack of institutional control" for that academic scandal? There were other issues under Haskins and he didn't coach at UNC, so they probably won't get hammered. That said, Roy Williams better have a good year on the court.

    Well the report went out of its way to say there was no evidence that the athletic department knew anything. Obviously that is laughable.

    This is simply the academic side of the dirty stuff. If they wanted to dig deep the would probably find more in recruiting, etc. let's just say that the Nation's oldest public university deserves more scrutany and a pretty harsh penalty. Yet, it will not prevent others from doing this and worse because the system is so bad.

    So Rashad McCants, whose allegations of academic improprieties at UNC were summarily dismissed outright by many, was substantively correct?

    How many Afro wigs have been purchased by Duke student ticket holders?
