Read the document here. Some (very) early commentary:

UNC managed to break almost every corner of the rule book: Academic fraud, extra benefits, John Blake unethical conduct and more.

Also, A LOT of instances of “false and misleading information” provided to NCAA. So much for that “full cooperation” Baddour crows about

Whoa. Apparently a player told UNC about Chris Hawkins and potential improper benefits and UNC did not “adequately follow up on information”

NCAA wants ‘copies of the completed forms monitoring whereabouts of football stud-aths…for the periods in which they received benefits’

Key on Blake: from 07-10 ‘Blake was compensated by Pro-Tect Management to influence student-athletes to hire Wichard to represent them’

Quick and dirty summary: Academic cheating, tutor paying for parking tickets, unethical conduct, lying to NCAA, refusals to be interviewed..

Can’t wait to hear the NCAA’s position on how USC lacked institutional control re Reggie, but UNC only failed to monitor…half the squad.

Breaking News: Spokesperson Kevin Best has confirmed that the University of North Carolina has received a letter of allegations from the NCAA pertaining to the football program.
Popcorn sales will skyrocket-hope we all can enjoy this to the fullest extent (Hammer of Thor?)…
Things are not so good right now in the A.D.’s office.

I don’t expect it to amount to much. They don’t even have the head coach’s phone records.
If UNC is going to share the information, we may need to contact a judge to get it…
Wow…the week has flown by…I didn’t know it was Friday!
UNC Press Release:
“The administration at the flagship school of the UNC school system would like to put any rumors of misdoings to rest. UNC has not received either a letter of inquiry or a notice of allegations. UNC also denies that they have ever fielded a football team. For those who do not believe this statement, we invite you to beautiful Kenan Stadium where each Saturday we will be hosting a series of Bieber concerts and pride festivals.”
I don’t know, I’m running out of material… the facts out-weigh any humorous scenario we could dream.
If your rationale is “I don’t expect anything to come of this”, I think you are ignoring the MASSIVE amount of information released linking players to agents to coaches as well as suspicious activity surrounding the parking tickets, switching of car plates, and links to alumni.
Basically, you have corrupt players, corrupt coaches, corrupt agents, and corrupt alumni all meddling in your football program, and that is all documented proof. I don’t see how you could rationalize “not expecting much out of this” unless, of course, you’ve lost faith in the NCAA altogether… which is a valid point to make.
wolfbuff “I don’t expect it to amount to much. They don’t even have the head coach’s phone records.”
You’re right.
Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday
Today i-is Friday, Friday (Partyin’)
We-we-we so excited
We so excited
We gonna have a ball today
I’m with wolfbuff. I also don’t expect it to amount to much.
This stinks as high as it goes. Soon we will know the extent of this corruption.
Just a thought, but the NCAA may not need Davis’ personal cell phone records at this point.
Remember, there is a difference in the Notice of Allegations and the punishments that will be given. This is basically the same thing as the arraignment where a judge lets the criminal know what they are being charged with.
That doesn’t mean they are done collecting evidence, it just means they have enough to know what they are going to bring to “court” against UNC. This is why I say the whole rationale of “they haven’t even gotten the ___(insert documents)___ yet” doesn’t make any sense at all. The question right now is if they are being charged with Loss of Institutional Control.
If you want to doom-and-gloom, wait until the hearing. Then you can claim “they got away with murder”.
Pride, I’m basically trying not to get my hopes up. We all know it stinks over there. But I don’t know that the NCAA has the political will to do much. Outside of NC, does anybody really care? And inside of NC, it’s being covered up and/or ignored and/or swept under the rug. We’ll see.
The “redacted” NOA is going to be a fun game for SFN followers. It will be like a MAD LIBS where we already know the answers.
“….. ….. is accused of serving as a runner for ….. ….. agency under the knowledge of coach …. ….”
wolfbuff – Ask Southern Cal if the NCAA has the political will to administer punishments to member universities. There has been a ton of investigative activity since Mark Emmert, the new NCAA president, took over in October 2010.
If you want to review some of Mark Emmert’s thinking, here’s a Google search thread: http://tinyurl.com/3g35fbc
Should be fun to watch over the next day or two at least.
this is going to be sorta like
when your sister was caught smoking
and YOU got the anti-smoking lecture.
Count me as one who thinks that the timing of this is good for UNC. If the NCAA investigation is dead, we know damn well the media will do absolutely zilch to follow up on the real story – like why a coach rarely uses his employer provided phone vs. his personal line.
TAE – I’d encourage you to ignore the outlier…Look at those stern punishments facing UConn for violations that may have actually trumpred USC’s. Also, name someone else besides USC who has gotten nailed.
Heard there’s no LOIC.
Game over. WE lost.
Question for more knowledgable readers. Wasn’t Greg Little a member of UNC Basketball team at one time. Did any of his wrong doings happen during his basketball tenure? How could this affect NCAA investigation? Thanks for any response.
@ErinESummers: Due to academic fraud #UNC may have to vacate 3 football seasons ’08 ’09 and ’10
Greg Little played for Carolina’s basketball team in 2008.
CAN…..NOT…..KEEP….UP…..
