The bottom line is simple, and rather germane to this.

Dean’s Myth won his first title in 1982. At that time, there was a new little WOP over in Raleigh, and a sniveling, rat-faced boy in Durham. Dean felt safe.

But wait! That little WOP caught lightening in a bottle and won the NCAAs the next year, and that sniveling little fool was just starting to build something good in Durham.

“We can’t have that. We’re Carolina, the Ivy of the south.”

So, old Deano, and his AD....Johnny Swofford (now Commissioner of the ACC) cooked up the little AFAM scheme to get better players so those two lesser folks to the east would have trouble competing.

Fast forward....Dean is dead *spit*, and old Swoffy is now ACC Commissioner. Banners have been been hung fast & furious. The “Carolina Way” is the cream of the NCAA crop. UNCHeat is in the top 10 of NCAA cash cows.

Now, does anyone think the NCAA is gonna nuke UNC, and also perhaps open the doors to future investigations about how this started? If the death penalty were handed down today, the media frenzy, and subsequent forensic investigations would be monumental. Dean’s Myth is seen for what it is. Swofford is escorted out the door at the ACC, the cash cow is dead, and perhaps maybe the FBI (such as they are) might take notice.

Wasn’t going to happen.

The NCAA is a sham, and they proved that today. Any school, from this day forward, that gets slapped by the NCAA should laugh in their faces and tell them to phuck off.

Fact is most schools have A-A programs and even if they are “crip” courses, no one says anything about it because they are afraid to be called “racist”...

The NCAA is a fraud. If the school was University of NoName, it would be sentence to the death penalty. Since it is UNC, and a member of a P5 conference, it is ok.
