Here is the whole 73 page response. They are even arguing the statue of limitations in years...even though they asked for more time to investigate with the Caldwell and Weinstein reports...wow.

Another interesting piece of word-smithing in this NOA response, is they do not mention "men's basketball" one time, but they do mention "women's basketball." That's odd b/c men's basketball was in the NOA and so was football.

Here is the NOA again, and just a few of the references to football.

Like with football, they didn't mention "men's basketball" in their NOA Response, but men's basketball was clearly noted in the NOA.

quote:

November 12, 2009 – Email from Huffstetler to Jennifer Townsend

After the 2012 investigation and during the statue of limitations that UNC is now arguing...interesting. They were still in those classes even after 2012.

and the ever damning...

quote:

The AFRI/AFAM department created anomalous courses that
went unchecked for 18 years. This allowed individuals within ASPSA to use these
courses through special arrangements to maintain the eligibility of academically
at-risk student-athletes, particularly in the sports of football, men's basketball
and
women's basketball.

Here is the NOA


You are revising history: speaking of revisions, the NCAA submitted a revised NOA to UNC that eliminated references to both MBB and FB, but retained references to Boxill and WBB. What you're referencing is the original NOA that is no longer current, and what UNC is not responding to. The revised NOA has been posted in this thread...


edit: actually YOU were the poster that first posted the news about the NCAA's revised NOA in this thread. I posted the pdf of the revised NOA below your post - it was dated April 26, 2016. The NOA pdf you linked above is the original NOA dated May 20th, 2015...

Look back at what I wrote on the last page (or I posted it below as well.) I don't think I'm revising history at all, I just wrote what was already found in the investigation. There was indeed an amended NOA, but it said on the first page that the stuff from the original NOA was still active.

quote:

Saw this on another site. Apparently, men's bball and football are STILL IN THE NOA. The UNC PR machine is just putting out there that they aren't named anymore. Those weasely bastards.....


This is what I copied from another site.
quote:

See PG 1 of the Amended NOA: " Please note that the policies and procedures outlined in the May 20, 2015, notice of allegations and corresponding cover letter still apply."

LINK

So football and MBB are still mentioned there on pg 49 of the 5/15/15 NOA and are still applicable. See Page 49 of the May 15, 2015 NOA attached below:

LINK

This ANOA does add a few interesting things. 1) failure to cooperate. 2) repeat offender. It brings up the 2012 infractions.

"A history of Level I, Level II or major violations by the institution, sport program(s) or involved individual [Bylaw 19.9.3-(b" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer">. They include: March 12, 2012 – Violations of NCAA legislation regarding academic fraud, impermissible benefits, impermissible participation, unethical conduct, failure to monitor, preferential treatment, failure to cooperate and failure to report outside income"

The rumors floating around this past weekend and late last week that the Amended NOA were reaching back to 1989 for MBB were just rumors.

They may be laughing now, but I don't think they're going to get out of this. Their response was arrogant and attacked the core of the NCAA's mission statement (not the part the ESPN lady focused on, but the last part
quote:

and to integrate intercollegiate athletics into higher education so that the educational experience of the student-athlete is paramount."


The student's athlete's educational experience is supposed to be paramount. Fake classes and a decades long program designed to feed athletes into those classes aren't in accordance with that last part.

"A history of Level I, Level II or major violations by the institution, sport program(s) or involved individual (4) the available hearing procedures and opportunity to respond to the allegations.


I guess so, but then in order for this to be true, we would have to accept that in this case, "policies and procedures" are a new way to describe "allegations", and NOT the reference to the NCAA's policies and procedures that the member institution must follow in addressing whatever "allegations" a said Notice is making.

My understanding is that the allegations have been amended by the NCAA: they once included football and men's basketball, but no longer do. Despite that, UNC must still follow the same policies and procedures for the amended Notice of Allegations, that they were expected to follow for the initial Notice of Allegations. The cover letter included with the initial NOA submitted on May 20, 2015 contained a listing of included items, such as the allegations, as well as :

quote:

(4) the available hearing procedures and opportunity to respond to the allegations.


In fact, after the initial paragraph of the four-page cover letter, the rest of the correspondence addresses almost entirely NCAA policy and procedure regarding how UNC is expected to respond to the allegations. The cover letter for the amended April 25, 2016 NOA is only one single page consisting of two small paragraphs, so of course when it says the policies and procedures outlined in the initial NOA submittal and cover letter still apply, it's referring to the NCAA's policies and procedures outlined on the initial cover letter, and nothing about anything UNC is accused of.....

Looks like getting off scott free is still their plan.

No. I corresponded with his son this week and he let me know that he's just been traveling abroad around the Pacific and Caribbean. He's doing well and everything is fine with his health. He went to some Gamecock functions in SC too, but then went back abroad. I would just consider him on indefinite vacation and he may or may not return to post here again.


I'm just counting down the days now to see if the NCAA still chooses to exist or not.

lol

I think he'd get a kick outta that though.

My wife and I were fortunate enough to be invited to attend Jerri and his anniversary - a memorable weekend down in Daytona. Coach went all out with the spread - a ton of people showed-up ... including Eric & Pauline Hyman. He was much more personable than he'd ever been before around us IMHO.

I'm ready for some football now. I was hoping to return to good news about UNC getting the hammer - I guess that's never gonna happen. What a damn travesty.

Amen on the NCAA thing. We ran into some big UNC boosters at Happy's on Waikiki ... damn I do not like UNC fans. I don't care what anyone says, the old ACC rivalry thing still exists and they are the biggest $#!+ talkers in the conference next to the taterheads.

About our game they were "if this" and "if that" and they claimed to remember all of these bad calls against them in our game and "if" they had not been robbed of that game and the Clemson game they would have won the national championship ... etc.

Then came the NCAA investigation talk and I swear to gosh they think they should be able to get away with murder because they are UNC. My oldest daughter is a UNC grad and that school totally tainted her mental capacity by the time she graduated - something about that place corrupts peoples' minds.

Glad to know it was you my Son was communicating with CiyE. Actually, we did not come back to SC all summer ... we went to an event down in Daytona, well, near Daytona, where we saw a lot of fellow Gamecocks.

We're gonna miss Coach and Jerri, but it was time for them to go home. I'll never forget the first day he arrived, the first time I was introduced to him that day and sitting there watching him give his "Why not us" speech. He almost got us to the promised land.

We'll get there one day - hopefully in my lifetime.

No worries I saw some threads on a couple of these boards where people were asking about you, so I thought I'd reach out to him to make sure you're still kicking around.

He dropped by the farm house this afternoon when he saw my truck in the driveway on the way by the house. When I got here I smelled something like dead flesh and found one of our big freezers full of a couple of grand worth of meat had gone bad while we were gone. :::::: sighhhhhhh :::::: I hate wasting food. I mean a ton of steaks and venison and elk and some gator meat and a couple of $200 whole tenderloins. Big hams and turkeys. We spent all afternoon with the backhoe burying the stuff on the back forty and cleaning up the mess. He and I both almost threw up pulling spoiled meat outta that chest freezer.

Y'all had a hot summer while I was gone around here.
