it was a class offered at UNC, it was and easy class but there was no real cheating, I took basic math in college for my math credit we only got to basic pre Algebra it was an easy A for me.

and I dont have to prove UNC basketball players did not take the class you have to prove they did and what years.

dude. U*NC admits some of the classes never met. and any class that was an easy A for you was by definition, cheating.

Take something that you had in 7th grade is not cheating it taking a class I knew I could do well because I need three credit's

some classes never meet does not mean it is one the basketball players took those you need proof

GB I've posted the proof many times.

I don't think we will. People just get way to optimistic about this team after a win.

Arkie by 7. Goodwin will try to be Superman in front of the home crowd. Can see at least 4 charging fouls on him and 8 turnovers. First round pick....

Not bad.... but NOBODY could do it like Happy. Was privileged to be at senior night when he sang. Emotional to say the least.

So you have names of players and classes the took?

Give me a class list of Tyler, Danny, or anyone else that make them Ineligible in 09, if not drop it because your flat out wrong.

State is the one that as Purvis with eligibility problems,

I have posted info that x number of basketball players over y number of years took part in z number of fraud classes including some fraud classes that only had basketball players enrolled. That is the best information available because U*NC will not release more specific data citing ferpa. The information you ask for has been requested many times and U*NC refuses to release it.


U*NC could easily release information in the form of Athlete A was registered in class AFAM in semester 1 2005, this class has been found to have never met, Athlete A influentially received a C, which was later changed to a B+ without revealing the athletes identity but they refuse to do so. I wonder why.

Judge Manning has a bunch of documents that should be released soon. He did chide U*UNC for hiding behind ferpa during the hearing so maybe that kind of date will come out soon. In the meantime the most cooperative university evar is still hiding the data that will either prove their innocence or their guilt.

I didn't "disappear", Augie. I made my position clear (i.e. the "student" part of athletes is a joke across the board in basketball and football). But you keep fighthin' The Man (while ignoring the BS high school diploma mills that Leslie and Purvis attended -- not to mention that fine upstanding character coming to UNC-raleigh next year, young Mr. Barber).

Purvis and Leslie both graduated from accredited high schools. If you have evidence that NC State is keeping them eligible through illegal means by all means present said evidence. If we're cheating, the players should be declared ineligible and any wins/titles gained by cheating should be revoked. Simple.

On a more serious note, it was 1 year ago today that my hometown was hit with an EF3 tornado with winds estimated at 140 mph. 7 people lost their lives in the county. Most of downtown was destroyed, but much progress has been made in just one year to rebuild. Estimated damage was at $215,000,000 for the entire county. The governor of Kentucky recently signed a bill that gave us $30 million to start rebuilding, which was the largest ever given to a Kentucky town following a disaster. Several new projects are in the works for rebuilding, but it will never look the same or the lives that were lost brought back. I personally knew two of the victims, a retired car dealership owner and his wife. He and my dad were best friends. May they rest in peace. Our little 'burg is having a memorial service tonight at 6:47 - the time when the tornado struck.

Here's a video of the destruction that aired on the CBS Evening News right after the tornado... Try to check it out if it's not too much trouble.

Here's a pic of the tornado a friend of mine snapped just as it was approaching town....... I had a similar view from my house which is only about 3/4 mile from the center. Actually, if you look the houses in the treeline just above the roof of the white house, you can see my neighbor's house.... I'm only a few hundred feet beyond that. Waaay too close. Never want to see anything like that again in my lifetime. Had roof and gutter damage and several trees blown down, but nothing like the folks on Main Street. BTW, the little house and barn in the pic were completely destroyed.

Thanx Sardis......... Will be greatly appreciated.

well that went about like I'd thought it would.

I actually feel bad for Goodwin, those Arkansas fans are brutal

Reggie Johnson was so bad today cost Miami hte game along with the turnover down 2 with 25 seconds left, that had to be one of the worse played games I have ever seen

Hard to believe that game even cracks your top 20. Considering UNC wasn't involved.

Been through 2 of those. No fun.

3 first round draft picks playing in the NIT.... and they won't even win that....somewhat humorous. The NBA draft is a joke.

Crotch Kentucky is a type of team that will make the SEC final or win it and get it, then lose in the first round

A good win for UNC do not think they played well at all and sturggled when Hubert went in the game again rather have Simmons get all those minutes with Johnson.

I'm ready for the season to be over. I don't want this team getting the fans hopes up just to tank it the next game.
