Pretty cool when your coach turns down $80 million and the head coach and presidency of an NBA job to stay at your school.

Illinois first 4/5 stat recruit in FOREVER.

I am stoked.

Illinois first 4/5 stat recruit, EVER.

I am stoked.

Still have the potential to add 1 or 2 more in this class too - Groce is getting things turned around!

IF we get EDOT (E Thomas) without Evans, I am okay with that. I see Lands-Coleman a better version of Ben Gordon. I heard he is a very intelligent individual and going the Business School route, which isn't easy.

Thomas
Bragg
Murray

This would make me happy.

2005 championship team had TWELVE African American Studies majors. lol

I'm sure there are legit explanations behind them all.

[gilesfan]

This type of stuff goes on everywhere

[BRule]

Of course but not everywhere is UNC and not everywhere was investigated by the NCAA for it.....They are going to get the hammer, they have to.

18 years of cheating, the true "Carolina Way".

A surprisingly light non conference schedule for Michigan State this season. We lost a lot of fire power and dismissed our best three point shooter. Could be a letdown season for the Spartans. Izzo will have his hands full this season. I am not worried though.

Should be a great season. Wisconsin, Duke, Arizona should all be close to elite, along with Kentucky. I'm excited.

This is re: UK.

the 6-foot-4 Blakeney told Scout.com. “They are treated like they are NBA players. I like that they are treated like NBA players. Not like in a celebrity way, but more making sure they have everything they need.”

Of the 35 bogus class enrollments, nine came during the fall semester of 2004, when eligibility for the spring was determined. Twenty-six were during the spring semester, when the season climaxed with a victory over Illinois in St. Louis.

But the report does show the number of enrollments by class and by semester for the three sports that used them the most: football, and men’s and women’s basketball. For a men’s basketball team that typically includes about 15 players a year, the numbers are substantial.

In the 18 years of paper classes, men’s basketball players accounted for 363 enrollments, an average of 20 enrollments per year.

The football team accounted for 1,377 enrollments during that period, but the football team has roughly nine times the number of athletes.

The Wainstein report shows that from 2000 through 2007, five or more basketball players were enrolled in each of 16 lecture-style classes that had been quietly converted into no-show classes. Twelve of them took place after Williams arrived at UNC in 2003 to coach the team.

Basketball players continued to enroll in sizable numbers until the spring 2008 semester. From there, the enrollments slowed to no more than five a semester.

2005 title should be vacated.
