I think we found out who some of the other schools are AND there is yet another lawsuit of past UNC players suing UNC and the NCAA.

quote:
Two former athletes who took so-called paper classes at the University of North Carolina have filed a lawsuit against the school and the NCAA, claiming they represent hundreds of thousands of college athletes across the nation who are promised an education but don't get one.
Devon Ramsay and Rashanda McCants filed the class-action lawsuit in North Carolina on Thursday afternoon, leaving open the possibility for more athletes to join them. The suit doesn't just go after the paper class scandal at North Carolina -- which experts say is the worst case of academic fraud in NCAA history -- but says that cheating is a fundamental flaw of the amateurism model in college sports.
quote:
It says UNC and the NCAA and have, in "spectacular fashion," broken the promise to give athletes an education in return for keeping the millions of dollars generated each year from revenues.
Washington attorney Michael Hausfeld is the lawyer behind the suit, and he's already got a winning record against the NCAA.
quote:
The lawsuit cites cases of alleged academic cheating at Syracuse, Berkeley, Michigan State University, University of Georgia, Auburn University, Florida State University, the University of Michigan and several other schools from Texas to Ohio, Kentucky to New Mexico.
