Wow. This isn't TarHeel Blitz. But I'll play, just this once.
To summarize, borrowing from the Raleigh N&O, ... Wainstein's research found that over the 18-year period of his review, that athletes made up 1,871 of the enrollments in the "fake" paper classes. Of those enrollments, the football team accounted for 51.4 percent (963), the men's basketball team 12.1 percent (226) and the women's basketball team 6.1 percent (114).
The NCAA's curremt NOA cites UNC for a "lack of institutional" control, one of five Level 1 infractions leveled in that NOA. This makes the more recent NCAA investigation very different from the one five years ago, which began when the NCAA interviewed a handful of UNC football players, including current NFL players Marvin Austin, Greg Little and Robert Quinn, for taking improper gifts and benefits from sports agents.
I'll repeat: the old NCAA punishment was for taking improper gifts and benefits from SPORTS AGENTS.
So what's new and what UNC will be punished for (including FB) is the impermissible benefits of these unearned fake class grades, which kept these many athletes academically eligible.
As you may recall, the NCAA handed down its punishment in that "old" case in March 2012. UNC was placed on probation in that punishment, along with a one-year bowl ban and a loss of some scholarships.
