"This allowed individuals within ASPSA to use these
courses through special arrangements to maintain the eligibility of academically
at-risk student-athletes, particularly in the sports of football, men's basketball and
women's basketball. Although the general student body also had access to the
anomalous AFRI/AFAM courses, student-athletes received preferential access to
these anomalous courses, enrolled in these anomalous courses at a
disproportionate rate to that of the general student body and received other
impermissible benefits not available to the general student body in connection
with these courses."

Screams fucked to me.

Worse for UNC than I was expecting. Short version:

1. Impermissable benefits across a number of sports
2. Impermissable benefits specific to women's basketball
3. Loss of institutional control (oddly it is specific to the academic side of the house- I think)

BAM! Banners coming down.
 
My favorite part so far: "The AFRI/AFAM department created anomalous courses that went unchecked for 18 years."
 
 
Some credit is due to the NCAA for having a spine.
 
This says it all.

"if you're up for a parade there may be one in raleigh today"
 
Just did a scan and it appears NCAA issued more than 1300 factual evidences to support the allegations. It looks dreary for the holes.
 
So if I am reading this right...this is an ABCers wet dream. Correct?

This quote is nice: "The high-level of involvement by athletics academic counselors...relieved student-athletes of the academic responsibilities of a general student"

Also interesting that they called out findings about the eligibility of 10 specific student-athletes but didn't indicate which sports they played.
