Full column from Brett Friedlander:
It would seem to me that bringing in someone from the outside to fix a compliance system that clearly failed might have been a more appropriate solution than promoting someone from within.
But at least UNC is consistent.
Promoting the person in charge of athletic compliance under such circumstances ranks right up there with letting Butch Davis continue coaching the football team even after his blind eye helped create a culture in which NCAA rules were blatantly ignored by his best players and most trusted staff members.
It’s called a lack of institutional control. Apparently though, UNC still doesn’t get it.
