Are they really going to get away with this? Davis told reporters last week that the university reviewed the records in the fall of 2010. That’s true, but the university never made copies. “He didn’t give us the records,†said Nancy Davis. “We hired outside legal counsel to take a look at them, but he […]
Wiley’s attorney speaks
Joseph B. Cheshire V, the Raleigh lawyer representing the tutor in the middle of the academic misconduct allegations, was unhappy with the decision. “It’s a sad day for the university that they would cave in to obviously orchestrated efforts to destroy their football program,” said Cheshire, a UNC-CH alumnus, a Tar Heel fan and an […]
More from ACC Football Kickoff
-Great interview of TOB about NCAA investigations in college football: Link to must listen interview. TOB says you maintain control of your program by hiring the right staff and there is evidence that he has made good decisions in that 7(?) former assistants of his have been hired as head coaches. Somehow TOB avoided hiring […]
UNC officials continue “cooperation” by declining to speak with WTVD plus random thoughts on local media…
We would like to give the folks from WTVD credit again. Last week, Mark Armstrong got this quote from UNC Chancellor Holden Thorpe: ‘You’re right. Nobody checked it, and I wish we had because we wouldn’t have said so strongly in the appeal hearing that the paper was his work.’ This week, WTVD apparently has […]
Chansky: Davis Should Go – Now
Full link. No school has ever been charged with its associate head coach and recruiting coordinator (John Blake) being a paid by an agent while on the university payroll.

During this scandal recruits considering UNC have relayed messages that the UNC staff didn’t(still doesn’t?) feel any sanctions against the program would be severe. The message […]
UNC still witholding records
UNC has long publicized itself as the “university of the people”. However, with UNC’s court battles and delays in cooperating with the various NC media groups in releasing documents that are clearly public records, I wonder if the state’s “people” are starting to see the university in a different light: Link to today’s N&O article […]
Russell Wilson can’t make a decision
Link to full article. “It’s a significant portion he would have to return,†said Marc Gustafson, the Rockies’ senior director of player development. Gustafson also said it would be difficult for Wilson, who is struggling offensively with the Tourists, to return to baseball if he played football this fall. “It would be hard for him […]
Gottfried makes big splash; Torian Graham chooses the Pack
How fitting is it that our Monday morning topic for discussion was this entry on basketball recruiting? Full link “It’s close to home and there was just something about it,” Graham told Scout.com. “It’s local and my family will be around. I can be close to my mom. She’s sick and that’s important to me.” […]
PART ONE OF JAM PACKED JAM FEST RECAP: TYLER LEWIS EDITION
Read the whole entry from NBE Basketball Report. But Tyler Lewis was special. Wrap-around-the-neck passes while in the air to cutters in stride. Dump-offs for dunks. Behind the back finds that would bring tears to Mark Jackson’s eyes. And of course, the finishes, mid range pull ups and the deep three’s with a defender draped […]
