i know he . . . then left his girlfriend because she was paralyzed from a car crash.

 

I'm sure I'll get accused of name-dropping here -- though this isn't exactly a big name to drop, ha -- but yuuuup, that happened. I was friends with her before and after the car crash (though I haven't seen her for years and years now). Her attitude and demeanor after the wreck were/have been admirable and impressive.

 

Also, on more Luke-Recker-is-a-dbag stories: at a party in college, a friend of mine was dancing with his girlfriend. Recker interrupted, stepped between the two, and said "I'm Luke Recker" (and not as an introduction, as the height of arrogance that she should ditch the other guy for him because, well, he was Luke Recker).

 

Also, his game winning shot in the Big Ten Tournament against IU only counted because the game clock amazingly froze for a bit on the final play. Yup, I'm bitter.

She banged Recker, didn't she?

They don't call him the home Recker for nothing.

UNC got off without any penalties. Here's what some talking heads think about it.

 

Dan Wolken þ@DanWolken

So UNC has years of documented, institutionalized academic fraud and no NCAA rules were broken? Got it.

 

Jay Bilas þ@JayBilas

And NCAA wonders why it’s a laughingstock?: http://******/O1bzUF Cue NCAA Prez to lecture on integrity, and who’s “in charge.”

 

Gregg Doyel þ@GreggDoyelCBS

I went to McDonald’s this morning, then read the paper. Am now nine credit hours closer to a UNC degree

 

CBSSports.com þ@CBSSports

RT @GoodmanCBS: Still trying to grasp the fact that NCAA announced no violations broken in UNC’s academic scandal.

 

Stewart Mandel þ@slmandel

Long story short on NCAA’s “conclusion.” UNC, unlike Penn St, didn’t make the evening news.

 

KilroyFSU þ@KilroyFSU

A Boise State recruit sleeps on a couch, Boise is nailed. UNC uses fake classes to keep players eligible? Nothing to see here!

 

Devon Edwards þ@Devon2012

What happened at UNC is infinitely more detrimental to everything the NCAA holds dear than criminal actions at Penn State. Not even close.

Groce is a pretty solid recruiter. We weren't even on Nunn's radar 5 months ago.

 

because the former staff thought jalen james was a better player. lol

That's pretty scary. I really hope the rumors about DJ are true also.

NC State picks up #9 overall and #3 PG in 2013 class. Love, love, LOVE Gottfried so far. I don't know how to act now that NC State is relevant (and hopefully the class of the ACC). I have SO damn many obnoxious UNC and/or Duke fans as friends or family. IF they can live up to their potential, it's going to be hard to remain modest given how many dreadful seasons I've endured. Cubs fans can relate, I imagine.

 

Oh, and Rodney Purvis is apparently now cleared and eligible to play this year. I was never too worried, honestly. I have a feeling this may be his only season at NCSU.
