The UNC scandal

[Deleted]

18 years? This is going to be bad.

I will not say who but I know a student at NC State, who is a HUGE FB fan. She tutors the FB players....

on how to read! That is sad.

What do you mean by 18 years?

I this in reference to how many years back the scandal goes.

From: www.cnn.com/2014/10/22/us/unc-report-academic-fraud/

"For 18 years, thousands of students at the prestigious University of North Carolina took fake "paper classes," and advisers funneled athletes into the program to keep them eligible, according to a scathing independent report released Wednesday."

Honestly, I didn't realize a major paper was released almost a week ago until I went looking based on your post. 3100 potential students impacted should make a ton of noise in the news - and I don't just mean sports. I do watch the nightly news regularly, and while I could have missed it, don't recall seeing this new information.

Guess ESPN does not hate UNC? This will go on for years. The two former FB coaches came out immediately together for an interview denying they had any knowledge. I think it was the next day. This going to ugly. Dean Smith is also being mentioned as possible involvement as gossip goes here.

Taking Dean down would be like JoPa.
