Announcements have been made. Judge Roy Bean has been found. Amelia Earhart has been found at a Starbuck's in Tahiti.

But the NCAA reports in spite of the tutor's written evidence and players coming forward to corroborate UNC's academic improprieties, that the NCAA cannot find anything that UNC did wrong.

Pack Pride and #110 Cow College in the USN&WR are ecstatic with the goings on at Cheater Hill and that they are no longer the worst academic school in the conference with the addition of #160 Louisville!:thumbsup:

They announced yesterday that they were dropping criminal charges against Nyang'oro, the former department head, because he has finally agreed to cooperate fully and completely with the investigation. There's your new source right there. Could this actually mean they'll do something?

Don't get too excited. Check out where DA Woodall graduated from. The judge on the case was Allen Badour. Yep name should sound familiar.

Here we go again with another one of these "no one in here but us chickens" routines. It's deja vu all over again. Bill Murray stuck in Punxsutawney. How nauseating.

Fuckin' UNC football and basketball need to be shut down for a couple of years for the common good, for the State of North Carolina's sense of self respect.
 
Why is Woodall talking about the "private" Wainstein review in the context of dropping fraud charges from the public investigation done by the DA. "Cooperating" with Wainstein should have no bearing on the DA investigation.
 
Investigations so far; am I missing any?:
NCAA first review
NCAA back again
UNC athletic dept. internal
UNC Martin
UNC Wainstein
Woodall/DA review

And to-date the Holes have pretty much skated by with a hand-slap. And it may well still end up as no more than that, but if it wasn't for the N&O and PackPride thing would have been buried a long time ago.

Precisely... I don't care who you are, that is funny.
 
UNC professor blasts university and its athletic heroes in defense of Rashad McCants.

"I'm struck by the profiles of those attacking Rashad McCants," Smith wrote in his email to me. "On the one hand, you have old-timers spouting off about their experiences in the 1960s, '70s or early '80s. These people haven't seen the inside of an academic support program in years, even decades. They don't have a clue what the program was like in 2005. Yet they hurl their venom at McCants – a player who had the guts to share his transcript on television, and who also had the guts to buck the tide while he was at UNC [an offense against ‘the family' for which he has never been forgiven].

"On the other hand, you have more current players willfully deceiving gullible journalists – while carefully guarding their transcripts – because they don't want to face reality and deal with the shame that the 'Carolina way' was no more than an illusion during their playing days. Antawn Jamison [who played at North Carolina from 1995-98] has the audacity to call McCants a clown? Someone needs to remind Jamison that [UNC-sanctioned special investigator] Ken Wainstein is actually looking at transcripts. Wainstein knows. And he's going to be issuing a report.

"Other people know, too, including some who are writing books. The truth is eventually going to come out. And we'll see who's wearing the dunce cap when this story is all said and done."

"As for McCants' refusal thus far to speak to the NCAA or UNC's compliance officer … I can't say that I blame him," Smith wrote. "Look at what UNC has done to him in the wake of his allegations. They slimed him, as they do everyone who dares to utter a critical word about the UNC athletic machine. Why would he want to sit down for a discussion with such people? [I suspect he sees Wainstein as just another agent of the University.] And the NCAA? McCants doesn't care about doling out punishment or 'making an example,' which is all the NCAA ever does.

"He wants to see the system change going forward. Neither UNC nor the NCAA has an interest in changing anything. This is why UNC will not acknowledge the truth of what McCants has said and it's why the NCAA went to court last month to maintain the charade that football and basketball players are ‘students first.' McCants, it seems to me, just has little interest in wasting his time."

"When Roy Williams came here from Kansas, he brought with him the team academic counselor who had served him so well at Kansas: Wayne Walden," Smith wrote. "He regarded Walden as such a vital contributor to the good fortunes of his teams that he was practically moved to tears when Walden departed in 2009. Walden knew every detail about the academic lives of those players; he had to. He registered them for their courses, for crying out loud. [And that means he got on the phone with the Department of African and Afro-American Studies and he put them in paper classes.] Walden also spoke with Williams every day; he had to. Williams' claim that he had no earthly idea that his players were floating along on paper classes – and that he never would have guessed that one of his stars was enrolled in four no-show classes in the spring of 2005 – is nothing more than a confidence trick. He's counting on the customary journalistic favoritism, and journalists' amazing lack of curiosity, to enable him to tell this whopper and walk away with his aura intact. We'll see if that works."

UNC has a huge problem. I think the lid is about to blow. Even so, we need to realize that every university has professors who hate the athletic department and would gladly burn it down.

Of course they do. No self-respecting professor could possibly agree with what the UNC athletic department is doing.
