NCAA Crawls Some unx Azz Options

[DevilDJ]

you know, ive never actually seen 'the picture" until now.

lol at unc-ch and the ol' ball sac.

Look at the tarhole douches sittin' in the VIP suite. "Every picture tells a story , don't it...."

[Lee Corso]

"In another courtroom, also long delayed, the media group that includes The N&O continues to pursue public records related to the NCAA investigation that the university refuses to provide. Wake County Superior Court Judge Howard Manning already ruled against the university’s interpretation of public-records laws last April, leading to the disclosure of some information, but such important items as Butch Davis’ personal cell phone records, the so-called “216 records,” remain unavailable.

While lawyers continue to negotiate a date for the next hearing before Manning, which may not be until June, the media group filed an additional request in Orange County Superior Court in March asking a judge to rule whether correspondence between the university and NCAA is a public record. In 2009, a court ruled similar documents relating to an NCAA investigation of Florida State’s athletic department were public records under Florida law."

Further sanctions forthcoming

Re: unc-ch 4/9 NYT:Football & Swahili

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you think some State fans were obsessed with the news of unc's violations, Duke has a thread for that which stands at 94 pages at the moment. Their hate for the light blue may be as strong as ours.... naaaaah.

[DevilDJ]

I guess since state has no draft news, The C o ck needed to bring up some old news with no new information.

I wouldn't use the N&O for toilet paper at this point.

Not clicking on that link.

I wouldn't wrap a fish in it, especially the online version.

Anyone notice in the N&O article on the draft this AM how they cover Wilson's pick, and then the kid from appy state and then at the very end, almost in passing, throw out that Zack was drafted ahead of both of them? Why would they not lead with the high pick first and make that the feature of the story?

The N&O sports page has become nothing more than a wuffpack pep club. The beat writer for unc sports, Andrew Carter, is an IncEst grad. unc should have stripped all N&O press passes after Giglio(another mooer grad) hacked BD & co.
**** on the N&O.

Why do they want the man's personal phone records? Geez buddy, it's over. Give it a rest you ****ing tool.

They have obviously seen paper subscriptions and rack purchases take a nose-dive sense the NCAA closure. Also, it comes right after Fedora's comments about state this week. I bet they got hammered with phone calls and e-mails, so had to drag out the same old issues for puppies.

Butch is gone. The NCAA has had its say. Circulation at the N&O must be dropping like Paris Hilton's panties on Saturday night. Luke, Larry is your father. Get a life.

I was wondering about this, is Andrew Carter a state college grad?

yes. How do you think the mooers would react if the N&O assigned a unc grad as their beat writer?

I'm numb to the tarhole nation's denial and delusion regarding Butch and the systemic corruption he implemented at unx. Used to it by now. That said , I AM becoming more incredulous at their assertions of media bias against THEM! "Yep. Sure thing guys. You've nailed it. That mean ol' NC media sure has it in for unx. Always have really. Scandalous , I say. Just scandalous."

[Pookie]

john swofford. greensboro, charlotte and the refs (particularly karl hess) are also in our pocket.

it's pretty fekin obvious.

[DevilDJ]

If the internet had been around during the Valvano days , State would be lucky to even HAVE an athletic department. The pro unx-media and the tarhole nation would've seen to it. Those lazy fux at , say , the Charlotte Observer wouldn't have had to do a damn thing other than regurgitate the deluge of "faks" being e-mailed to 'em by hole fans. It's my understanding that State had some gutless turds at the time who sat back quietly while V and the program took it hard an' dry. If true , one can only imagine what tptb would've done to satisfy the tarhole-led witch hunt at the time. And these hypocritical little beches wanna cry about media bias NOW?! Sure. Ok. Whatever.

No More Tar Heels Selected For NFL Draft

The NFL draft ended Saturday on a disappointing note for unc fans, after no additional Tar Heels were selected in the fourth through seventh rounds.

Out of eight unc prospects, six were left out of the draft entirely, including tailback Ryan Houston, wide receiver Dwight Jones, and defensive end Donte Paige-Moss. Safety Matt Merletti, cornerback Charles Brown and defensive tackle Tydreke Powell also missed the cut.

as long as its just cash and suits after graduation everything should be A-OK.

Houston's dad ran some combines in clt. Imagine how good it felt to stay glued to the NFL network for 7 rounds.

....I bet the spin at Idiot Central goes like "this is GREAT! Now they can go to the teams they really want to play for and not end up at Buffalo or Cleveland!"

Got some mileage on it but this column from unx alum Bob Lee details a legacy of corruption in the football program at his alma mater...

The Legend & Reality of "Sunny Jim" Tatum

“a parasitic monster of open professionalism ….” – that was the way The Daily Tar Heel greeted the arrival of “Sunny Jim” Tatum in 1957. Did you know that? Is all you know about Jim Tatum that a fatal tick bite denied carolina its destiny as a College Football Superpower. READ MORE my friends if you can handle this most ironic déjà vu all over again…..

Gather 'round my buddies and ye shall hear of The Legend of “Sunny Jim” Tatum. “A blue bleedin” prodigal coming home ….. OR a ham-fisted bully with blatant disregard for any/all who dared stand in his way. But for a tiny tick, would unc’s sports history have gone quite askew. That toxic tick notwithstanding …… is “The Pale Rider” a reincarnation of “Sunny Jim” just modified for the Millenium Generation?

“Jim Tatum was a con-man, a dictator, a tyrant and one hell of a football coach.“ ...... Buddy Burris, All-American 1946, 1947 and 1948

Tatum played his college football for Carl Snavely’s North carolina Tarheels. He was big (6’3“, 230 lbs), strong and good—good enough to make a couple of All-America teams as a senior. After he graduated in 1935, he became an assistant coach at North carolina. When Snavely moved on to Cornell the following year, he took Tatum with him.

Tatum returned to his alma mater in 1941 to serve as an assistant to Bear Wolf. When Wolf enlisted in the Navy just before the ’42 season, Tatum was promoted to head coach and led the Tarheels to a 5-2-2 season. The following season, in the Navy, he was coaching the Iowa Pre-Flight football team along with Bud Wilkinson and Don Faurot, architect of the split-T offense.

The man selected to create the Sooner juggernaut was Jim Tatum, a big, brash, bearish Carolinian. OU’s director of athletics, Jap Haskell, had known Tatum during the war and seen his teams in action. On Haskell’s recommendation, OU decided on Tatum as their head coach …… and regretted this decision almost immediately.

Jim Tatum hit the OU campus in the spring of 1946 like an Oklahoma tornado and some would say that he did just as much damage. In less than one year’s time he managed to win a Big Six Conference Championship, alienate the University president, pay players in cash, overspend the Athletic Department budget by some $60,000 and get the director of athletics fired. This is what is remembered about “Sunny Jim” Tatum.

“He was a man with lots of university money, which he was passing out to the married players,“ linebacker Merle Greathouse told Harold Keith. Tatum matched several players with a sponsor or “sugar daddy.“ This gave the sponsor the right to enter the Sooner dressing room after games and visit with the player. These sponsors usually slipped a twenty-dollar bill into the player’s pocket before they slipped out the door. They also bought clothes for players at Connolly’s Men’s Store in Oklahoma City. Tatum may have worked his players hard, but he also rewarded them handsomely.

When Cross received a report on Gator Bowl expenditures he could not account for $6,000, which was listed only as “expenditures.“ It occurred to him that Tatum may have bought gifts for the players even though he had explicitly told him not to because it would be a violation of Big-Six rules. Fifty players at $120 each equaled $6,000. Cross confronted Tatum on this issue, and he admitted that he had indeed given money to the boys. Furthermore he proclaimed, in what Cross characterized as a “triumphant manner,“ that this was a perfectly acceptable thing to do, and he seemed to be unconcerned that these players could be declared ineligible.

The University of Maryland offered Tatum a free hand to set up a football machine in 1947, Tatum accepted for the chance to show people how a football factory should really run....A biography of Tatum at Time.com explained, “Still, all was not roses for Tatum even at Maryland. The university was criticized for overemphasizing football. When Dr. Wilson Elkins, a Rhodes Scholar and one-time University of Texas quarterback, was named president in 1954, and set out to raise Maryland’s academic standing, Tatum got “itchy feet”. The Maryland student paper, The Diamondback, editorialized as follows, “Tatum’s tenure was an era in which an inadequate stadium became ultra-adequate and an inadequate library became more inadequate.“

Jim Tatum was the epitome of a certain breed of winning football coach, a giant tending to paunch since his playing days, a man with a muscular glad-hand and sharp tongue, a celebrity of sorts who had had so much acclaim that he floated on an air of supreme self-confidence, certain that things would be fine—so long as he won.

And look who gets the slideshow. "Why College Football Should Be Banned"

And look who gets the slideshow. "Why College Football Should Be Banned"

SMU, Sandusky, Miami, and good ol' unc@ch. Fine company.

Charges of agents giving players improper benefits and academic misconduct hit North carolina in summer 2010. By summer 2011, an assistant coach had resigned and the unc chancellor fired head coach Butch Davis because of the cumulative damage to the school's reputation over the unfolding scandal. The NCAA placed the football program on probation and banned it from postseason play in 2012

unc Infractions Decision Follow-Up: ESPN.com Article on Social-Media Policies at NCAA Member Institutions

The NCAA Division I Committee on Infractions’ March 12, 2012, public infractions report in the University of North carolina-Chapel Hill (unc) enforcement case continues to generate discussion on social-media. Myron Medcalf from ESPN.com wrote an article, “Policing the social media craze”, that explored how NCAA member institutions are addressing the issues associated with coaches and srtudent-athletes’ use of social-media. Medcalf noted:

Medcalf’s piece shares insights from college coaches, athletics administrators and social-media monitoring services vendors. Medcalf also refers to the unc infractions case as one example of the pitfalls of social-media

The Committee on Infractions, through the release of the March 12 public infractions report, determined unc was “responsible for multiple violations, including academic fraud, impermissible agent benefits, ineligible participation and a failure to monitor its football program”. The committee held that “over the course of three seasons, six football student-athletes competed while ineligible as a result of these violations, and multiple student-athletes received impermissible benefits totaling more than $31,000″. Most importantly, the committee elaborated on its monitoring expectations for NCAA member institutions with a “heightened awareness” of possible rules-violation.

Policing the social media craze

Varsity Monitor -- which has partnerships with Nebraska, North carolina, Oklahoma, Texas and Villanova -- offers schools a computer application that allows them to filter and identify problematic social media activity. They can search for a word, a phrase or a topic. Each school pays for a customized version of the product.

Last year, the NCAA cited North carolina for failing to monitor social media activity after tweets by former North carolina football player Marvin Austin led to an investigation and violations. While the NCAA doesn't have a blanket policy on social media, the North carolina infractions case put many schools on alert.

unx...a case study.

Wish I could find the original PP post. It came from WI or Brakk or Lumber. No one here or PP has referenced it yet but one of those posters said that unx would "die by a thousand cuts." How's that prediction lookin' now?
