[QUOTE="Falcon1981, post: 129301619, member: 1425999"] Did we not get two years probation, loss of scholarships and reduced recruiting for having a GA spend time working with players during the summer? I guess the standards are little lower in the ACC. [COLOR=#ff4d4d]It's amazing. You read it everywhere. Their academics are in tatters, but basketball is safe.
