 Here is a series of articles, presented in no particular order, from the past two weeks or so concerning one or more of the ongoing UNC-CH football scandals. Time constraints prevent me from full discussions and proper transitions, so please feel free to add well-developed and flawlessly-written commentary and analysis in the comments section. For example, a […]
TOB adds running backs coach, makes staff changes; Seating changes at Carter-Finley
Full link. In the past six years, Sands has coached three Bulldog running backs who were named to the Southern Conference All-Freshman team and had a back break the single-season and single-game school records for touchdowns. This was his second stint at The Citadel, as he also served as an assistant coach for the Bulldogs […]
Should there be a Baker/Simmons prong?
The saga of the UNC-CH football scandals continues to unfold like a Dan Brown novel. This entry  made today on frumpzilla takes a detailed look at the recruitment of Delvon Simmons and the employment of Brian Baker, who worked under Butch as UNC’s defensive line coach for about a month, leaving just after signing day. We wrote about the […]
Ramsay’s lawyer: “We’re convinced that Devon has not committed any violation”
Today the N & O reported some statements made by Ramsay’s lawyer, specifically: “We’re convinced that Devon has not committed any violation,†said former N.C. Supreme Court justice Robert Orr, who represents Ramsay. and “What we’ve had to do is back away from that penalty phase and try to address everything surrounding the violation question,†[…]
NCAA denies McAdoo appeal, Baddour calls decision “unfair”
In news nobody could possibly find surprising, former UNC-CH defensive end Michael McAdoo had his appeal denied today. The News and Observer has the best coverage of this development. McAdoo was previously declared permanently ineligible by the NCAA — apparently due to tutor issues (if I am reading this right): UNC has declined to disclose which […]
Baddour “researched” past cases: Butch tells recruits no scholarship reductions or bowl bans are coming, other odds and ends (Day 202)
Hey everybody! I have been slammed at work and therefore unable to write as much as I would like. My apologies.  Three recent developments warrant comment — so here we go, “Bytes” style. First, let’s go over some comments made by Sylvester Williams, a UNC-CH signee.  This Charlotte Observer article posted today explains that Coach Davis explained to Sylvester that UNC-CH would suffer […]
Yahoo! Sports criticizes Elaine Marshall
I have literally no time so I will have to rely on other members of the author team and/or the comments of alert readers for analysis of this piece posted today by Rand Getlin of Yahoo! Sports. Here is an excellent quote from the article: North Carolina’s Secretary of State, Elaine Marshall, claimed the expertise […]
Rashad McCants’ fledgling acting career
Today seems to be providing State fans everywhere an embarrassment of riches!! The latest developments in Starvin’ Marvin’s saga are required reading. Go ahead. Click on it. This will be here when you return. A BIG thanks to The Big Lead (link to the video), which simply must be seen to be believed. Rashad apparently […]
Marvin back in the news! Learned from money-buddy, Hakeem Nicks
The News and Observer today posted this article, which explains that Marvin will wear #99 and a UNC helmet in this Saturday’s East – West Shrine game. I can’t express how happy I am about the helmet situation. What a great representative of UNC-CH! Also, Marvin refused to take the Wonderlic intelligence test that is administered […]
More Amazing Email!
Given that UNC has still not released all of the email and other records they are required to, it is surprising how much has been found so far. I’m sure more will come out as time goes by, but aside from the UNC professor’s email we talked about last night, there are some additional emails that I think are worthy of […]
