NCAA 'Investigations'

[Bank Cat]

Also, I have always felt that Eric Manuel was screwed royally. His career was ruined.

And I have always felt that he could make a ton of $$ by writing a tell all book. But if he is innocent, he has nothing to tell.

Since hasn't said anything,I feel he was innocent and knows nothing.

My guess, and it's just a guess, is that Manuel was just a pawn. I don't think those were his answers but I don't think he cheated. I think someone must've somehow completed a different test for him. Jon Scott's site has some really good information on this. Bottom line, I accepted then and now that we were doing some things wrong and deserved some sort of punishment. But the fact remains that the NCAA yanked a poor kid's future away and Eddie Sutton was coaching a major program 18 months later. Manuel is appealing to the NAIA to let him play in front of 200 people. NCAA is the devil.

This team will likely go down as one of the greatest in future AFAM classes. See my A- paper below outlining the greatness.

They was good!

If we were close to getting the death penalty for what turned out to be, perhaps, a bogus payment, and one...one player cheating on the entrance exam, UNC should get it several times over.

Great point. I'm willing to bet UK got hammered worse than UNC will get hammered for something 10x (at least) worse.

It sure isn't. Another interesting thing about the UK investigation was the UK President pretty much begged the NCAA to put us on probation. We were so cooperative we agreed to everything they threw at us.

I still think the Emery package deal was bogus and never added up. But Coach Casey got a nice settlement check from them. Are they still in business?

UNC has stonewalled for 7 years and will never cooperate with the NCAA investigation and I doubt the NCAA even cares.

I saw on Twitter the other day and it may not be accurate but it stated that UNC had spent 18 Million in legal fees defending these allegations.

For what it's worth, someone I knew who took the test that day told me that Manueal sat right next to Sean Sutton and some kid who was a known brainiac. He had 211 of the 219 answers the brainiac had. This whole thing was told to me before UK was in any kind of trouble.
