UNC ruling come down

not sure what it means for Ole Miss. Seems like the lawyers muddied the waters and now the NCAA will have to close another loophole.

Per the twitters. @ncaa

Interestingly, Sankey was head of this investigation committee.

And the ruling, at least on the surface of the tweet without digging in to the articles, is weird. Basically, unc invented fake classes but since everyone had access to them, it didn't selectively benefit the student-athletes.

So in short, the ncaa is saying that your university is a joke, but at least the entire thing is a joke, not just the part of it the student-athletes take part in.

The college president should be fired, if he/she hasn?t been already. That should embarrass the university

Aside: I met a UNC alum the day after their natty in a lunch line near work. Was wearing a sweatshirt. Told him congrats on the win last night. And I made a joke, "so did you take the real of the fake classes down in Chapel Hill?" he was not happy at all.

If I'm an alum of unc I'm absolutely furious. This is a complete joke. UNC should lose some academic reputation over this.

Not guilty. Wow.

Already been dealt with. This is an old issue.

If true, then this wasn?t a win today imo

So UNC's defense to the NCAA is that they offer fake classes to all students, not just athletes. I understand the ruling but if I had a diploma from UNC hanging on the wall I think I would take it down.

BREAKING: Coach Hev removed from the recruiting trail and replaced with Random Booster.

You?ve heard the expression about the NCAA is so mad at Bama that they gave so-and-so the death penalty. I have no idea how true it is but I could see the NCAA saving face from today on OM

The cases have absolutely nothing to do with one another. Not one thing. Not even close.

UNC imo shouldn't have been punished. This is a school problem not an athletic problem. This is a class that was offered to the entire school & wasn't started solely to benefit athletes. Athletes did benefit but no more than the regular Joe college. How do you punish an athletic team for taking the same cupcake class & getting A's as any other student?

This. All day.

I agree shouldn't this be an accreditation issue or something? Is there another governing body that presides over this? NCAA is athletics only.

The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools' Commission on Colleges has placed the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on a year-long probationary period ? the harshest sanction before revocation of accreditation.Jun 11, 2015

Are the accusations against om and UNC even remotely similar?
