    Pat Forde’s Take:

    North Carolina (4). The season started with four defensive players suspended for a game after a training-camp altercation with a reserve wide receiver. But even after those players returned, the Tar Heels haven’t stopped a soul. They’ve surrendered at least 27 points in every game, and 50 in three different games – including the humiliating 70-point bomb dropped on them by East Carolina. Thus for the 10th consecutive season, North Carolina will not play in the ACC championship game, in a season when many thought it was possible. And it seems like there was one other embarrassing development that slips The Dash’s mind – oh yeah, the small matter of the 18-year academic scandal that enveloped more than 1,000 North Carolina athletes, including a ton of football players. Nice autumn in Chapel Hill.

    Pat is being kind… putting the Holes at #4…

    From E$pin today …

    Weber State placed on probation (Football -only 3yrs. )

    …for those that don’t read much… this excerpt…

    The NCAA put Weber State on probation for three years, reduced scholarships for the football program and imposed at least $5,000 in fines for violating ethical conduct rules. The penalties do not include a postseason ban.

    The teacher, who was not named, admitted that in spring 2013 five athletes gave her online access to their school accounts.

    Let’s see that’s ONE rogue teacher working outside the lines for LESS THAN ONE year with FIVE student athletes…
    AND the penalty was apparently REDUCED due to…

    “The school was credited with promptly detecting and coming forward with the information as required by the membership,” said Rodney Uphoff, committee on infractions hearing officer and University of Missouri law professor. “So yes, that is a factor that worked in Weber State’s favor.”

    All of which begs the proverbial question… Most people want answered….

    What does the NCAA do about a whole f’ing university of rogues cheating for 3,000 plus student athletes over an 18 year period ??

    #NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!
