Just wondering if he was suspended when they were caught changing grades. I guess they swept that under the rug.

The argument is because it was for all students, not just athletes. Which is fricking retarded argument. Like that makes it better.

Im curious as to when footage or audio of this was leaked. Or when it was even proven that ROY changed grades.
Can you provide a link to any of this?

You have to admit that school was doing some serious frickery. To the point I'd be embarrassed I had a fake fricking degree from there.

Was Roy Williams caught on a wiretap discussing offers with a shoe company rep being investigated for giving college basketball players improper benefits?

Like most young adults/teenagers not thinking about the long term effects of participating in something like this is pretty common. I doubt any of them were thinking about future embarrassment. The ones who were the loudest voices like McCants, were probably more embarrassed that they sucked in ever aspect of life outside of wearing a UNC jersey.
Now the class in question, regardless to how easy, stupid, pointless, shitty it was. Don't you think that most classes college students take as either electives are just as dumb?

Nope, but 20 years ago, LSU fans blamed Roy Williams for bringing down LSU basketball because Lester Earl was a college athlete looking for a pay day. Got one from LSU, and when it didn't go well, transferred. Then got loose lips about LSU.
So now everytime LSU get's caught up doing some shite, or is "wronged" in some sort of way, It's LSU fans duty to remind everyone, that Roy Williams is to blame. Not the LSU employee's or athletes who actually commit the violations.

I just think Roy is scummy in general Lester Earl aside.

Most coaches in general fit that bill for me. We all know they are all greasy, and doing shite under the table. It's like modern day version of the Mafia. Except without murder.

He wasn’t on tape. Coach Wade’s downfall will be the tape. Nothing else.

Roy Williams represents everything that is wrong with college sports. He is the sleaziest of the sleazefest.
He's one of the few people I would still, at my respectable age, punch in the face if given the chance.

Some, yes. Where I might find taking an 18th year of English extremely stupid. Someone else might think learning Spanish pointless.

The NY Times:
The NCAA did not dispute that the University of North Carolina was guilty of running one of the worst academic fraud schemes in college sports history, involving fake classes that enabled dozens of athletes to gain and maintain their eligibility.
The scandal was so serious that the university’s accreditation body briefly placed the university on probation.
But there will be no penalties, the organization said, because no rules were broken.
In a ruling that caused head-scratching everywhere except Chapel Hill, the NCAA announced on Friday that it could not punish the university or its athletics program because the “paper” classes were not available exclusively to athletes. Other students at North Carolina had access to the fraudulent classes, too.
“While student-athletes likely benefited from the so-called ‘paper courses’ offered by North Carolina, the information available in the record did not establish that the courses were solely created, offered and maintained as an orchestrated effort to benefit student-athletes,”
“If ever there was a case of academic fraud, North Carolina would have to be the poster child — the longevity and the outrageous behavior to keep athletes eligible through systematic fraud.”
“It is more likely than not that student-athletes received fraudulent credit by the common understanding of what that term means,” the panel said. “It is also more likely than not that U.N.C. personnel used the courses to purposely obtain and maintain student-athletes’ eligibility. These strong possibilities, however, are not the operative or controlling starting points to the membership’s academic fraud analysis.
“What ultimately matters,” it added, “is what U.N.C. says about the courses.”
