someone dug into it and said 22 of the first 25 are Dean Smith's athletes. We know how he got the 90% graduation rate now right?

Don't they call that the 'Carolina Way'? Shameful to say the least.

Just the BOFA. They're the only ones with independent study.

Boxill resigns from unc... still amazes me how the NCAA can turn it's head during this scandal.

Welcome to Syracuse hoops

Five years of probation from March 6, 2015 through March 5, 2020.
Vacation of all wins in which ineligible men's basketball students played in 2004-05, 2005-06, 2006-07, 2010-11 and 2011-12 and ineligible football students played in 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2006-07. The public decision contains additional details.
Fine of $500 per contest played by ineligible students.
The school must return to the NCAA all funds it has received to date through the former Big East Conference revenue sharing for its appearances in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament.
Suspension of the head basketball coach from the first nine conference games of 2015-16.
Reduction of men's basketball scholarships by three for the 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 academic years. If the school has already executed scholarship offers for the 2015-16 year, the school may begin the four-year penalty with the 2016-17 year.
Reduction in the number of permissible off-campus recruiters from four to two during June 1, 2015 through May 31, 2017.
The panel also accepted the school's self-imposed postseason ban for the 2014-15 season, but noted that self-imposition of penalties after the conclusion of infractions hearings does not influence the outcome.
Additional self-imposed penalties can be found in the public decision.

..... and the ncaa's future action against the tarheels?? Most likely a slap on the wrist at most.

... but in all reality, you know the fans at Syracuse are going to be out in full force DEMANDING similar action against unc for violations that are equal or most likely greater than their own...especially now that they're in the ACC.

I'd say UNC just got a very real shiver down its spine.

Its only respite is this investigation took like 10 years.

Being an outsider to any of the three schools I have to say that I am surprised at the bravado coming out of Kentucky fans exclaiming their glee over UNC and Syracuse's plight. It's like spitting into the wind challenging fate.

I don't have any glee over Syracuse .

Whatever happens with Carolina is loooong overdue given their position on UK basketball over the last 2 decades

Fwiw - Kansas has an eligibility issue with a player and we know about Coach K covering up a sexual allegation against a player.
