Sure, if you're naive enough to believe that this was an isolated incident with one student

[Guest]

this is an isolated incident of a long-gone terrible coach recruiting a liar and crazyperson who was a complete inconsequential player.

 

UNC had a [expletive] cheating player covered up by a cheating coach that cheated to win a national title they don't appreciate or deserve and ruin the [expletive] times of program without a national title that was cheated out of one by a cheating program with a bucnh of idiot fans that only care about winning and absolutely nothing else.

 

yeah, i [expletive] take exception to your cheating ass program with a cheating ass coach who cheats to make sure his players can play. he's a cheater, and if you even assume he knew nothing about mccants not going to class and failing his other courses, thus making him ineligible to play, if you tried to take the title that they really don't appreciate or deserve away from them, all of those idiot fans villifying the [expletive] out of mccants and doherty would flip their [expletive] lids because it's all about winning and nothing else at carolina.

I'd be more outraged if I weren't confident that Self cheated at the same time at Illinois.

So what? Are you trying to say your program is clean then? My whole point is EVERYONE does it. It was Doherty's fault for recruiting someone that makes it more likely to get caught. You're the one being naive here.

[Derwood]

Everyone does it guys, so it's totally cool

[davell]

At no point did I say that either. But when any team gets caught, there shouldn't be shock, appalment or anything else. But any holier than thou, "we're clean, we deserve it" talk is [expletive] stupid. If we get caught, it'll suck for me. Just as if another team gets caught, it'll suck for their fanbase. I find it hard to believe anyone disagrees with this.

To be fair, most of us aren't fans of programs where we have to worry about this. Your team is in a position to win titles consistently so it's going to be a much bigger deal to people.

I'm not a fan of Roy. I place THIS blame solely on Doherty though. Roy would have stayed away from him, as he has other recruits that may wind up being trouble. Under ZERO circumstance do I think he or anyone else remotely successful in D-1 basketball runs a clean program. McCants though, was a problem Roy inherited.

While I think that most programs operate in a shady area, when stuff like this comes out the NCAA has to take a stand and do something. If they don't punish UNC for this, how in the hell can you ever punish any program for academic wrong doing?

 

If they find it, I agree. And I think they'll find it honestly. But you can't just go take some bat [expletive] crazy person like Rashad's word for it.

The fact that he is a crazy idiot is the most damning thing of all for UNC. Roy saw this, knew what was happening, and was like "I'm good."

 

The fact that davell is blaming the head coach of the Sudan national team at this point goes to show just how weird and out of touch UNC fans are.

 

 

Ahhhh, Sulley trying to be a douche? Weird and out of touch, huh? Instead of attempting to be a smart ass, READ what I wrote in my post where you so douchily thanked me for posting something of no interest to you.

 

Rashad was there when Roy was hired. He was an inherited issue from Doherty. Not sure why that's hard to comprehend. Roy has plenty of [expletive] to take blame on. This isn't one of them.

 

C'mon, dude. Roy didn't have to keep McCants on the team if he thought the guy was a headcase/problem. He could run him off easily. Happens all the time in college basketball. I think Roy was all too happy to have Rashad's 18ppg.

There's a slight issue with a system that gives UNLV more points for football than Duke gets for basketball

Jawun Evans, five star point guard on campus for the Illini. 247 crystal ball is 100% Illinois on this. Would be a major disappointment not to land him or Brunson. Evans may bring Elijah Thomas with him, which would make for a top 5 class, probably.

Groce really has to land this kid. I don't think Brunson is happening.

yeah, Brunson is gone, most likely

Loving that DJ Williams is now ranked higher than Charles Matthews on most sites. Any chance Matthews ends up at UK?

[Guest]

Not in the long term

[illiniguy]

Lot of twitter Buzz that it is going to be a good day for us. Fingers crossed.

[Guest]

nope. won't get either and the bears lose out due to me and my fanhood.

[illiniguy]

Lol, now I am reading we might miss on both guys and Abrams tore his ACL and is done for the year. Man Illinois basketball has been a huge nut punch for a decade. I really hope we don't whiff on both of these guys.

[sneakypower]

Jalen Brunson's crystal ball is great; he's had 7 different leaders

Damn that really sucks about Abrams. Hate to see that [expletive] happen.

yeah, i'm wondering what PGs are left and why top recruits keep picking other schools. i mean villanova and ok st? i can understand KU and Duke.

 

Things seem to keep getting worse.

[Guest]

now the illinois insiders are saying that it's Illinois for Brunson. FWIW. what a [expletive] roller coaster.

He's played it close to his chest, who knows. I'm still prepping for Villanova. Chicago has no love for the state schools.
