Full WRAL story. Judge Orlando Hudson needed just a little over two hours to come to his conclusion in a Durham courtroom denying an injunction and thus preventing McAdoo’s return to the field. … “Mr. McAdoo committed academic fraud. He is a cheater. That is what happened here,†Sun said. “The university makes the eligibility […]
UNC Scandal
Plagiarism prong in the news
A few new articles commenting on the plagiarism prong have arrove! But before we get to those, I have a theory about the “sideways scissors” hand sign McAdoo (and others) always seem to do in these pictures. Given McAdoo’s expertise hitting control-v and control-c repeatedly, perhaps it is a “cut and paste” sign. If you look […]
Plagiarism prong has arrove (McAdoo plagiarism uncovered by Pack Pride hooligans)
The recent news that former UNC-CH football player Michael McAdoo was suing the NCAA and UNC-CH (covered here by WRAL) led to one of McAdoo’s papers becoming public. It took less than one afternoon for McAdoo’s apparent plagiarism in this paper to be discovered by UNC-CH’s least favorite group of message board yahoos. The plagiarism story has now been picked up […]

Why UNC Loses the 216 Battle

The Don (Curtis) of UNC Football
This was originally written over Father’s Day weekend but due to everything that came out last Monday and Tuesday this would have been lost in all the noise. I want to say thanks to the other SFN writers who helped in creating this piece. Last Thursday (6/16) and Friday (6/17) there was a huge deluge of data related to the ongoing […]
Scandal odds and ends ***6/25 update with Fox piece from Evans and N & O parking coverage***
I know the scandal is busy when I have to write these potpouri entries covering several different articles. I can remember when SFN was about the only outlet covering this thing. Good to see everyone finally getting in the pool. Way too much to comment on at length, here are some various things from the last two […]
John Blake’s telephone records for the world to see
Who was John Blake calling all of the time? You can see for yourself in this link to 400 pages of John Blake’s telephone records. Have fun. Of course, it sure would be nice to see the actual text messages. Why wouldn’t UNC want to release the actual text messages of their former Associate Head […]
Why State Fans Care
Two decades ago, us State fans suffered the indignity of investigations into Jim Valvano’s basketball program by the NCAA, Poole Commission and even the SBI, as well as a vitriolic assault by the local media and Board of Governors. (Click here for a must read that integrates nicely into today’s entry.) As a result of […]
