 I am back! Last week the other members of the SFN author team were knocking it out of the park covering the scandal here and here, so there was no need for me to clutter up the blog with redundant and/or inferior analysis. Also, the FSU game appropriately occupied our attention and energy. Speaking of the FSU […]

Did Butch Davis violate UNC player’s academic privacy!?
In the middle of the build-up and resulting excitement related to NC State’s huge win over Florida State on the gridiron last week, some of the ‘UNC-CHeats scandal’ got pushed to the side a bit. On Thursday afternoon, it was announced that a consortium of Triangle media outlets were suing UNC and some of its […]
The Spartan Way > The Carolina Way
In doing some research to help out VAWolf82 in his recent entry I found a compliance document on academic fraud from Michigan State that can be found here. At the bottom of page 1 and top of page 2 the document lists the NCAA rules on academic fraud discussed in VAWolf82’s entry. But the interesting […]
Butch’s redshirting dodge and a dubious poll (day 98)
This entry is nowhere near as good as last night’s. I’d like to thank the other members of the SFN author team for adding content and providing research for yesterday’s brilliant and monolithic Burney expose’. The first thing to cover tonight is the topic we left off with last night — UNC’s apparent plan to use redshirt years to […]
[10:30pm] Brown out for year, Burney out for Miami, maybe more (Day 97)
UNC-CH announced late today that Kendric Burney will not play Saturday against Miami and that Charles Brown will not play at all this year. Here is the ACCNow report. I am totally blown away by UNC’s actions regarding Burney over the last few days. The folks in Chapel Hill are really outdoing even themselves on this […]
Update 8:30 pm – Added analysis from UNC blog on today’s Kendrick Burney PR fiasco
11am Update: Durham Herald Sun tweeted the following 11 minutes ago: #UNC football spokesman Kevin Best said Kendric Burney’s case still hasn’t been resolved 1pm Update: The News & Observer just posted this: Burney’s case not resolved North Carolina cornerback Kendric Burney has not been cleared for Saturday’s game at Miami, a team spokesman said […]
UNC’s timeframe & 3 reasons why CMFD’s Sgt. Schultz defense isn’t plausible (Day 85)
I assume most of you have heard by now about the UNC comments following the BOG meeting today. You can watch a report and read about it here also. This stuff gets covered in real-time during the day on our message boards which is one of the reasons we are always trying to send your attention that […]
Kendric Burney had prior knowledge of agents in Miami but Butch didn’t? (Day 75)
^ Marvin at the gun show this past spring. Tonight’s entry is based on a piece that went up last Thursday but (appropriately) got lost behind our excellent pregame entries Friday and Saturday.  This point is too important to miss and represents a major theme that should be repeated — we are being asked to believe that Butch Davis knew almost nothing about what […]
Why “the Carolina Way” is now a punch line (nightly update day 71).
Let’s get right to it. We have a lot of ground to cover. The fallout from yesterday’s NCAA suspensions began with Kendric Burney’s dad giving some great quotes that really raise questions about institutional control. You should read this article in full. I think this passage from that piece damages UNC-CH more than any other I have read since […]
Nightly Update Day 70
Wow! We started this new nightly update thing just at the right time. Tonight’s entry will not be as linear and organized as normal because I am pressed for time and the news is still developing and hard to analyze. Obviously tonight’s update deals with the NCAA issuing suspensions – Burney getting 6 games and Williams […]
