Goodness I’m shocked. Where can I go to get my innocence back?
Why is this news? You’d have to be a dumbass to not know that this is rampant throughout ALL colleges. Duh!
This is most likely just one of many similar examples of grade fraud going back decades. A Gentleman’s Agreement, in the old school manner of discretion, but for very high stakes. This will not likely ever be fully prosecuted. The roots are too deep and widespread.

“Hey guys my degree in African American Studies is worthless!”
“Yes, we knew that already.”
Wonder if they are going to revoke any and all diplomas that were based upon these fake courses? Remember, these courses may have been fluff courses taken with the major in another field altogether.
Maryland drove one player to classes, gave sweatshirts to 2 recruits, and had players sell their ACC tickets. The coach tried to hush it up. UNC will get nothing like the penalty Maryland got.
Carolina refs!
Let’s get to the important question — did it comply with Title IX?
Sounds like reasonable grounds for the NCAA’s version of the ‘death penalty’ (ala SMU’s death penalty).
And don’t forget that UNC trashed the whistleblower who first revealed this sort of thing was going on.
Somehow, this is whitey’s fault, just watch.
This crap all starts in Junior High when Mr. NoNeck excels in some sport. And it finishes with a full scholarship of some kind when he gets to college.
My daughter, a straight A student, 5th in her class of over 800 students got a $1000 scholarship from some small woman’s group. That’s all she got. Now, when you pass the school, the sign out front brags about how over $10,000,000 of scholarships were given out that year. Where the hell did they go? Certainly not to my daughter.
They were given to all the Mr. NoNecks so they could be spoon fed in some big time, over priced college.
There should be no such thing ever as an athletic scholarship. By its very name, it defeats the purpose of a scholarship, which should be based on brain matter rather than steroid matter.
