[QUOTE="BoremanEer, post: 129549169, member: 1443088"] ....is a watershed situation for the NCAA? There cannot be any worse example of academic fraud that has ever existed in the NCAA, and yet UNC allows its team to compete in the NCAA tournament this year and tried everything it could to steamroll the NCAA investigation from the get-go. If UNC had been, say, the University of Massachusetts or Tulane, their program probably would have gotton the death penalty. There has to be a growing frustration with programs like WVU that run a clean program to see programs (like Syracuse, UCONN, UNC) openly cheat and flaunt it and get away with it. At least Louisville had the decency to pull its team out of the NCAA tournament. But I do not know how the NCAA can continue to do things legally like ban SMU, yet allow entitled programs like UNC to get away with the crap that they get away with. Sooner or later, some school (or conference) may get fed up and tell the NCAA to shove it. As it is, the only real "lack of institutional control" seems to be at the NCAA administration itself. I know that once Bobby Bowden was asked if WVU ran a clean program, and he said "Laud, yes, but we are not lily white". I know WVU has had some minor run-ins (Jonathan Hargett concerning Gale Catlett) but to see schools like UNC and UCONN prosper from their actions, it refutes the old saying that "cheaters never prosper". In the NCAA cheaters do prosper. Very much so. Thoughts?? [/QUOTE]
