The comments are good for some laughs. No way those people believe what they typed, unbelievable.
The afam scandal is the nfl's deflate gate. The nfl did not want to punish the pats but did to save its reputation .
The ncaa does not want to punish unc *** but will to ensure its existence. GBB

Well, the last time I saw UNC in trouble was related to football and they paid a WHOPPING 50K to make things right.....................
I'll be shocked if any major penalty comes down on Roy and his practices of relocating his players to elite standards not available to the student body.

I think that's what will happen...similar to the Rose situation, the NCAA didn't throw out his test, it was the testing facility board who did that part...thus making him ineligible, which is when the NCAA vacated all games in which he played.
I believe I heard that the accrediting agency, SACS, is to issue a ruling in June concerning this. IF they deem those athletes to have attended bogus classes (from an accreditation standpoint) and invalidates them, then the NCAA can step in and rule those players ineligible. Similar to Rose, where ETS invalidated his SAT, thereby making him ineligible. The NCAA cannot call a college's courses inadequate. They have no jurisdiction there. But SACS does. Or unc** could, but we know they'll never self-report. So it's up to SACS, whose very credibility is at stake.

I hope the NCAA continues to drag their feet. The dark cloud over unc could be doing as much harm as actual sanctions if recruits are going elsewhere.
That may be true, but the NCAA sure as hell as jurisdiction over a couple of hundred unauthorized grade changes, and students who had papers written for them.
If the NCAA doesn't act on UNC, they are paving the way for every other school to set up the same thing. Most schools will have far too much integrity to do so- but some will go hog wild.
The NCAA can adjust their rules on the fly. Two words: Strict Liability. How many times was it used before or has it been used since the Memphis issue? If they want UNC***s head on platter they can have it.
That's exactly what it should be, because that's exactly what it is
Some of what you mentioned above was going on while the UNC*** athletics dept. was already on probation from the football scandal. Probations tend to mean if you commit more violations while on probation you get pounded even harder.
If they do in fact dole out some kind of punishment, I can't see how part of it won't be a post-season ban, which would be perfect given that they will be one of the favorites next season.
Keep in mind that if a recalculation is done, UNC rejected the NCAA's min GPA several years ago and raised theirs to mimic Duke. They did the same with their required hours per semester as well, which could turn up to be huge if entire courses are nixed. Such lofty expectations, but hey, they are a public ivy.
This is a scandal that we may never know the true depth of. The Wainstein report was huge in unearthing a lot of it, but there is still a lot buried that may never see the light of day.
This makes all other scandals in the history of the National Collegiate Athletic Association look very small.
