UNC Football Next Program to Be Hammered

[Chechem]

Chec - Even if the NCAA is assuaged by the fact that non-athletes took the bogus courses, the acedemic accreditation agency won't be. In the end I doubt that their agency (SACS?) will revoke their accreditation, crippling such an outstanding school, but they will prolly put a shot across the bow that will get everyone's attention.

I agree.  SACS will get involved, probably not until their next scheduled review.  Meanwhile UNC will do a complete cleanup to ensure it will NEVER happen again.

This latest revelation could doom UNC. This is not going away and I can guarantee you that basketball has to be involved.

The university’s internal probe covered the period of 2007 to 2011, but new evidence suggests the fraud may have gone back to the late 1990s.

I wonder if Larry Fedora is starting to regret leaving Southern Miss.

Deepening doo-doo, indeedy do.

Deepening doo-doo, indeedy do.

Yes, very deep.  And there is an army of horn-rimmed geeks digging into this at UNC.  Believe me, the NCAA investigation can't hold a candle to the Mensa crowd that is incensed by these accusations.  These are among the best brains in the country, all intent on finding and punishing ANYONE who made their university look bad.  The punishment will be complete.

From this  article you'd think everything was over and done with.

This article articles suggests otherwise.

The first article sounds PSU-esque.

Maybe UNC deserves the same punishment as Penn St. This has been going on and it was an actual or so pretended, student who uncovered this. I say it probably goes back to Mack Brown. Close the football program. RTR!

Do you really think they will hammer the legend of Dean Smith and the current coach, Roy Williams? I don't see it happening. Just saying.

Yes, I believe they will do whatever it takes.

Are you getting some info from the newspapers up there or have friends telling you this? Are the media (newspapers, tv, radio) raising cain and demanding action? Also, what's the word on Williams and/or Smith? Has the president or BOT made a statement? I find this case very interesting.

I haven't read anything much about it, besides the forum here and other Alabama forums.  I have friends at UNC, know lots of alumni, I visit there regularly, and my son graduated from there.  I've heard from them about it.

I find this case fascinating, because for so many years mainly northern reporters and the fans and universities of the Big Ten and ACC have looked their noses down on the SEC. Now, programs at Ohio State, Michigan, Penn St., and Wisconsin have been hammered by the NCAA and now it's the turn of the ACC. UNC is one of the crown jewels of the ACC and they will get hammered, soon. The hypocrisy is overwhelming.

Miami will be hammered first.  That's as deep as UNC.
UNC will be hammered (again), but you should expect a house cleaning by UNC itself (unlike other schools).  They're embarrassed BIG TIME, and guilty folks are going to pay.

I agree UNC has a huge reputation for integrity & academics and I can see them cleaning house, to a degree. I just don't know if they can hit the basketball program with the same fervor, unless Williams retires as coach. Another sports story we will be watching for a while.

You understand the situation pretty well.
