The Hammer of Thor will come down on these cheating, arrogant bastids.....as it should.

Even though I’m a North Carolina taxpayer, I still think this is pure comedy gold. I just imagine that everything we pay the state goes to the Parks Department ;-).

Somewhere in this article I thought the NCAA would say it’s going to investigate grade inflation at all university AA/African Studies, Gender Studies, Communications, and the other departments popular with student athletes.

I guess a little truth is better than no truth at all.

So now what? They crack down on these sham classes, and within a year, will have Al Sharpton and his ilk claiming they are racist for expecting their black athletes to maintain grades in normal academic courses.

The Gibsmedats just whacked UNC. Oh well.

The sad part is, the corruption in big time college sports is probably nothing compared to the corruption in big higher education overall.

I wonder how many of the Afro-American and Diaspora studies program now work for the Obama regime?

A friend of mine in college (Fresno State) already had an agreement to play professional football with the Detroit Lions when he ‘graduated’ (full scholarship) from college. His courses included...Bowling, Ping Pong, Golf, Tennis... Anything but academic courses. That was early 90s. I can only imagine how bad it is now.

I know this crap didn't happen with the UNC basketball team when I was there. Dean Smith wouldn't have tolerated it. IIRC - Dean still has the all time record for the most Academic All Americans playing for him.

I sat next to Walter Davis for most of my courses in Business and Economics. He was sharp as a tack. In 1977 I graduated right between him and Bruce Buckley. Bruce was a Rhodes scholar.

Years ago, Maryland got into huge trouble for:

giving a kid a ride to class
giving sweatshirts to recruits
letting kids sell their ACC tourney tickets
the coach lied about it and tried to cover it up

They got a 1 year no TV ban, a 2 year postseason ban, loss of 2 scholarships a year for 2 years, had to pay back 400k in NCAA revenue, and got 3 years probation.

If UNC gets any less, then MD was right to leave the ACC (All Carolina Conference)

At least it is not a serious as team members selling their autographed pictures( those corrupt bastidges and their coach)
