I know I said it before in the other thread, but this is finally starting to get some national attention. NBC nightly news just reported on it.

Unfortunately they couldn't find any evidence that anyone outside the African American studies program had any knowledge of what was going on so that will probably take the death penalty off the table (if it was every on) and limit whatever penalties they dish out.

I remember maybe thirty years ago, might be more, it was before my oldest child was born because I remember I was still single and maybe living in Italy at the time ... either ABC or NBC did a story on the Clemson cheating scandal and interviewed two Knoxville, TN HS players that testified to money, cheating academics, whores, etc., on national TV and within days Clemson was in trouble. Probably had to be around '80 or '81 because my oldest daughter was born in '82 ... she's 32 now. I remember why I am putting it into that perspective is because I left for Italy in late '82 and I know it happened right before I left right after I got back from Gallant Eagle.

It brought national attention to Clemson's cheating asses ... I hope it does the same thing to those mother frickers at UNC.

Oh, and my oldest daughter, my lost cause, cost me over $100 grand to go to UNC ... but that's not why I can't stand UNC. UNC is hypocrisy defined.
