OT: Roy Williams reacts

Yeah.......President Loh is a double idiot for saying that 19 years of no show classes at a so called "University" should be punished which makes me a triple idiot since I am not a university President.
I suppose that the NCAA condoning 19 years of no show classes is another story. Always wondered why the NJ media never stepped in on this one. If it happened at Rutgers the athletics program would have been shut down pronto. ESPN would have had an entire series of Outside the Lines programs dedicated to this.

The difficulty here will be that less than half the people taking these classes were athletes.
The UNC argument will be this was not an athletic problem but a university problem which we have addressed.
Valid or not it's an argument that at some point ends up in court.

ends up in court?
while not impossible (because just about anything could end up in court) it may be a challenge to get it there - what will be the basis? and who will have standing? those who took & paid for no-show classes - and got credit - are unlikely to pursue action - the University will sit on its hands - it will not be the NCAA as it seems to be confused & struggling to understand the facts and can't quite make out whether it is something of any concern ... not any governmental agency of the state of North Carolina - home of the new NCAA Champions - and not any NC prosecutor with a sense of self preservation....
and .. many of the other parties outside of the events will be deemed to "lack standing"....
That makes it a brilliant coverup.
Athletes get free A's to stay eligible, and the school can make the argument you just did.
The key words here are " Williams, who has won three national titles at North Carolina"... nuff said
Heard an interview where he was complaining about the additional obstacle his team had to overcome due to the investigation. Easy way not to have that distraction. Don't set up fake classes for 20 years. I felt like puking.
Aren't you the life of the party on Easter. Kid was happy his school won
Yes, but the real question is of the non-athletes enrolled in the fake classes how many were relatives or friends of boosters and donors? How many were the kids of Deborah Crowder's co-workers and friends?
Until someone shows me these courses were open that any and every student on campus it is still very suspect.
Fake class = ineligible to play....w What am I missing NCAA? How many athletes took this class over 20 years ...100% ,50%, 10%?

Figured you would say that.
Sorry.
Winning at all costs is never going to fly with me, no matter who attends that school.
