UNC wrestling coach who criticized Title IX treatment of college men is fired

RALEIGH

The UNC-Chapel Hill wrestling coach who has been a critic of how universities handle sexual assault allegations that do not go through the courts is out of a job.

After 12 seasons as head coach of the UNC wrestling program, C.D. Mock was “relieved of his duties” by UNC athletics director Bubba Cunningham.

“I made the decision that a coaching change was in the best interest of our wrestling program moving forward,” Cunningham said in a prepared statement. “I believe a new head coach will re-energize the program and return it to the level of success I expect from all of our teams.”

Mock, who coached the 2005 and 2006 teams to back-to-back ACC titles, has been the subject of much criticism lately unrelated to his 33-38 record over the past four seasons.

Toward the end of last year and the beginning of this year, Mock became the subject of much criticism for personal social media posts on a blog he set up after his son, a nationally ranked wrestler at the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga, was accused of rape last March by a student.

Criminal charges were not filed, but the case went through the Tennessee university’s judicial process.

And the coach is right- criminal charges should NOT be handled by private entities

Identify as a black, queer, lactose intolerant, sex changer and all will be forgiven.

Title IX is going down.

Now that it is fashionable to tolerate those pretending to be an alternate sex, it won't be long until men (posing as women) begin to invade women's college athletics. The guys who are just below top-caliber athletes against other guys will likely be able to outplay most women athletes. And think of the fun lawsuits that will transpires as a wave of transgenderism sweeps into Division 1 college athletics and hundreds of wassaguys gobble up women's athletic scholarship funds. - Just desserts.

The article is misleading, at minimum... they do seem to have OTHER grounds and it is not clearly cause and effect.

He has a losing team record

Yeah, this is a headline meant to incite, and, judging by some of the posts on this thread, it’s working.

Every knee must bow to the authority of the state, which is what the cowardly athletic director is doing here.

Yes, but what washroom would it use?
Would they have to place all of that on the door? And in braille? Tactile graphics?

He probably caused a big stink by graduating a high percentage of his wrestlers . They also didn’t go to the fake classes set up for the basketball and football players. Not hearing much about that lately at UNC.

The left is tolerant of nothing that is against it.

It's been a rough year for UNC. Now it will have to give a 71-year-old physics professor back pay for time he spent in an Argentine prison after he was duped into travelling there to meet a bikini model and then induced to smuggle drugs into the country.
