The NCAA can't tell any school what classes they have to offer. That's been UNC defense this whole time. They've proven its available to all students.

Failure to monitor bro, It painfully obvious and former players have spoken out against how they were told to take classes in which they never did any work and received bogus grades. Trying to shift this off as the schools responsibility and not the AD is asinine.

from 2014:

quote:
he rarely went to class for about half his time at UNC and he remained able to play largely because he took bogus classes designed to keep athletes academically eligible.

quote:
On Wednesday, McCants also stood behind an allegation he made directly about Williams: That, when he was possibly headed toward ineligibility during the 2004-05 national championship season due to grades, Williams told him in a meeting that a summer session could be swapped out with a failed class to improve his GPA.

quote:
the reading levels of 183 UNC-Chapel Hill athletes who played football or basketball from 2004 to 2012. She found that 60% read between fourth- and eighth-grade levels. Between 8% and 10% read below a third-grade level.

Failure to monitor? That's not even part of what the previous issue was. If you want to say grade switching and forging APR then that's different than the previous allegations.

To say UNC is the only school to direct athletes to easy courses and majors is disingenuous. We put our FB guys in Hotel/Restaurant Management or Psychology at SMS due to the relative ease of the classes.

We also had them take library science and reading which were taught by our Athletic Advisors.
