I never had much use for her
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

So if State is doing it, it's just something that needs to be fixed. If Carolina is doing it, it's time to shut the entire athletic department down (and, if you had your way, the entire university). Ah well, State fans can always dream...
If shutting down the Ad is the best way to fix it at State then yes. Hell, we came awfully close to shutting down the AD over shoes and tickets in the 90's so it's not out of the realm of possibility
"I would prefer that classes meet and actually discuss their topic, assignments are given and turned in and the students actually learn something. You know, like a real class. Obviously that's not an option at UNC."
Wow, that's breaking news. UNC has no faculty, no staff, no way for any student to take an actual class with a teacher in a classroom. It's not an option! State fans say so! LMAO...
Then fucking use them. By UNC's own admission you had 54 classes in one department over a three year period where you didn't. Maybe if you didn't have by far the highest number of "committee cases in the ACC you wouldn't need to cheat quite so much
U*NC is the cleanest most honest athletic program on the planet. I am jealous of their deserved success, and I'm a mewling cunt.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
and now for something completely different
--------------------
Texas Tech players expressed concern about the way they are being treated by second-year coach Billy Gillispie during a meeting with athletic director Kirby Hocutt this week, multiple players told ESPN.com.
The players were initially called to meet individually with members of the compliance department about the number of hours they were being asked to practice.
After the meeting with the compliance officials, the players met with Hocutt as a group.
Associate athletics director Blayne Beal, who is in charge of communications, confirmed that the meeting took place with Hocutt and the returning players.
Beal also said the school was informed early Friday morning that Gillispie was hospitalized in Lubbock. Beal said he didn't know why he was hospitalized and had no further details on his condition.
Compliance officer Jennifer Brashear declined to comment.
Gillispie didn't return a call or a text message seeking a response.
Beal and Hocutt met Friday to discuss the player matter and issued this statement through Beal:
"We are aware and are looking into concerns within the leadership of our men's basketball program. Student-athlete well-being is our top priority and a matter that we take extremely seriously at Texas Tech. Texas Tech is devoting its full resources to look into this matter.''
Hired in March of 2011 to replace Pat Knight, Gillispie went just 8-23 overall and 1-17 in the Big 12 in his first season in Lubbock.
He was previously the head coach at Kentucky, Texas A&M and Texas-El Paso and a former assistant under Bill Self at Tulsa and Illinois.
"Compliance wanted to know what's going on,'' said one returning player who requested that his name not be used. "(The meeting) was about a lot of stuff that goes on in practice, everything within the program, the way we're being coached, the relationship we've got with our coach, practice hours and stuff like that.''
The player said that Gillispie is a "good coach, teacher and mentor, but he's not the most personable person, not the coach you can go and talk to. He breaks you down. But he doesn't build you back up. It's hard to play for him when that happens every day. You feel like you're getting torn down and you can't get back up.''
The player said there were a lot of "mental games'' being played.
"The meeting was in his office,'' a second player said. "He had no idea what was going on. When some of the players told him, he said he was going to try and make it best for us and enjoy the career that we have at Tech. The feeling is that some guys will leave if (Gillispie) stays, maybe some of the new guys or some of the old guys. We all have to talk to our families first.''
The first player said none of the Red Raiders talked about transferring during the meeting with Hocutt or made demands about Gillispie's job status.
The second player said that the players "really like the assistant coaches.''
Gillispie's top assistants are Chris Walker, Jeremy Cox and Bubba Jennings.
Texas Tech has experienced a high amount of attrition since the end of Gillispie's first season, as six players from the 2011-12 roster have transferred: Cameron Forte, DeShon Minnis, Jaron Nash, Terran Petteway, Kevin Wagner and Javarez Willis.
