Packpride is like reading a crime novel.
The latest is this Jan Boxill lady, leader of the faculty executive committee at UNC, who called for an FEC emergency session in an effort to urge Thorp to stay. She held an emergency meeting for the General Faculty so that they could be updated on the situation and show support for Thorp.
Interesting thing about Boxill...her name is all over Julius Pepper's transcripts (he rcvd a B in her philosophy class), she is an academic counselor in the student athlete development dept, and her husband, Bernard Boxill, who also teaches at UNC in social and political philosophy and African American philosophy per UNC's faculty page.

There is so, so much crap to uncover over on Cheater Hill...right now, they are also trying to find out who the other passengers were on the Hansbrough/Kupec flight to NYC...AND someone (who has posted A LOT of credible info over the last 2 years) has an email from someone that states Ol 'Roy and asst. coach Steve Robinson are caught up in this mess now and that Roy has hired an atty (he has been pretty quiet in the wake of this recent blow to the holes). Promise of "more info to be released in 5-7 days..."
Also:
Joe Ovies and Adam Gold are reporting a rumor
that the the trips that Tami Hansbrough took on the Dental Foundation dime might
have been found to not be legitimate foundation business and not allowable
expenses. They are stating if this is the case then UNC would have provided her
paid travel to Tyler's away games which is an impermissable benefit to the
player. This would make Hansblow ineligible.
oh wow. that would mean the 09 championship would be stripped. as much as i hate carolina athletics, that would be a really big blow to the overall acc
I'd be pretty shocked if Roy disappeared. No way the school fires him. They'll go down with the ship, first.
Now they're reporting an emergency BOT meeting at UNC tomorrow.
Also, there is a poster over there named WaffleIron, who is dead-on with everything he's posted about this scandal -Not just the athletic stuff, but the deep, dark university stuff connected to deep pockets- is saying that Roy will be gone before the season starts.
He's been hinting at recruiting violations involving Hansbrough (involving Tami, of course) and maybe some other recruits.
If banners come down on cheater hill, the school will crumble.

There is a guy who goes by the handle, "Manalishi" who has been spot on and seems to be in the know. Two other handes to follow are: SantePack and another guy named "Primal Scream". . .both seem to have insight.
I don't know if what they are predicting will come true, but the stars are starting to align that way. Manalishi says that Dan Kane at the N&O has UNC by the short ones and is revealing his information slowly. One thing I can say, is that it appears as if Kane has a mole feeding him information. What seems to have gotten lost is the fact that Thorp did nothing about the Hansbrough/Kupec situation. . .NOTHING. . .until Kane called him. Kane called him on a Friday. By Sunday, Thorp had met with Kupec who tendered his resignation. On Monday, Thorp returned Kane's call to answer his questions about Kupec.
The same weekend that Tami Hansbrough went to Memphis to see her boy play, the Dental Foundation racked up over $16,000 on a credit card which only had a limit of $10k. An accountant was sent to the Bank to pay the bill the bill the following week. The same accountant was told not to question Foundation Officers' expense reports. How do you run up a $16,000 bill in one weekend? According to SantePack, "Take a look at which of the other players' parents were in attendance that weekend."
Oh snap! This is getting good. Cue the popcorn eating emoticon.
