In the end, they may vacate some wins, maybe lose some schollies, and/or get a one year post season ban, but this year will be considered clean and they'll get to keep the NC if they win it. That may not have happened if they didn't drag it out like they've done.


You realize its not the basketball program thats the main part of the infraction?

The football program was the investigation.



While it is true the basketball program did not start out the focus of any investigation isn't it pretty clear they were funneling many of their important basketball players through the fake african american studies program? A program they custom made for that purpose? I've never heard of a more cynical case of academic fraud for NCAA athletes - especially in light of North Carolina being a generally well respected, while not elite, academic institution.

You cant know that for sure. They said over 3000 students went through that class and about half were athletes. Regardless that is a provost/dean and administration issue, not specifically a basketball one. It had been going on for years, not like Roy Williams created the class himself
