Roy's so arrogant...I think he really comes across as condescending when referring to serious academic matters as "junk." Its so interesting he became "CONCERNED" with players "clustering" in certain classes AFTER he won the 2005 natty....
Oh wait, EXCUSE ME, I forgot his ORIGINAL STORY- " maybe they just decided to start taking different classes."

Many are in favor of taking on the NCAA. And for the record, I believe that since there was no language covering this kind of fraud, this third notice of allegations might be stretching their own authority and ignoring their own rules. There's no consistency here.
The NCAA are by no means angels. I think we can agree on that. I think they're remarkably inconsistent and someone in there wants our head. This isn't to say that will happen. But it was also partially our fault for prodding the bear with a stick.

Where we also agree is that this thing could have been taken care of a long time ago. Long term it's a bad look, no matter what the result. Especially with recruiting. Without this scandal, I think at least a few blue chip recruits come our way that we missed.
Furthermore, as much as some on here would love to see UNC get the axe and never rise again, that rivalry is still there. It's important. I love it when we have the upper hand as do you against us, but to me, it wouldn't be quite the same if the competitive atmosphere between Duke and Carolina vanished. It's almost a "one can't live without the other" kind of a thing.

first of all I don't care about getting banned but if you didn't agree with it ,why did you hit the like button the I was bannedSpeak for yourself, topps. I'm sorry you got banned, I didn't agree with that decision. But I for one enjoy the rivalry and what it brings out in both teams. I hate Duke, I don't hate the rivalry.
I have a different take on this situation than most fans.
The evidence is pretty clear. Even if you take the weak argument that since these classes were offered to everybody they weren't sports related, it hardly matters. The writing is on the wall, it was a ploy to get these athletes eligible the easy way. I talked to a Carolina grad that I work with about it. She went to Chapel Hill at the height of this stuff, and she basically said what we all know. That the athletes got special treatment, and most didn't even do their own work.

However, I am not in favor of dragging this out three more years. That's more possible recruits going elsewhere, that's losing to you people every year, and that's further hurting our already tarnished image. I wanted to do something self imposed from the beginning. But the people at UNC have done the opposite and instead have royally pissed off the NCAA.
We may not get punished or we may. I know I don't want any wins or titles vacated but I'd rather own up to this and take a punishment.
I know many of you while disagree with this, but I don't think we should get the death penalty. I think it is in the NCAA's best interests to keep one of their top programs intact.

Leaving the program "INTACT!!!???" Complete joke to do so when the program was ANYTHING but "intact," while an organized scandal allowed your school an unfair competitive advantage for two decades actually....
OFC
Yes, intact. And you'll pardon me for desiring that outcome. I know what this was, I'm not blind. I can accept vacated wins and titles and a couple years away from the postseason. But the NCAA would be wise to spare the ax. It's in their best interests to do so, plus they don't exactly have a moral high ground either.
Agree do not advocate the death but two year post season ban and loss of two scholarships per year for four years is certainly warranted.Yes, intact. And you'll pardon me for desiring that outcome.

do notYou do advocate the death penalty? Or you don't?
See I don't buy the "best interests" argument. I think the sterner the punishment the stronger the message to everyone across the board. Perhaps you are talking revenue. We are in agreement on postseason bans, titles being forfeited-

And if we don't lose anything I won't complain. But if we do it's justified.
I know you hate us like never before, but I think a punishment like the one I mentioned would be more than enough to send a message.
dj, glad to see you are still cranking it our.
