The ACC Thread

[douggie]

the State North Carolina is going to lose a lot of money over this law

Yep, HB2 is just bullshit. The NBA is just being stupid over it because it's the politically correct way right now. They are selling tickets in China Pre-Season, yet have zero problems with China's Communism, Bigotry, Human Rights Violations, and Trade Practices. Hypocrites at North Carolina's expense.

I didn't notice the Farmer's tan, until just now. lol, Dinos is an epic fail all over in this picture.

but, to be fair to him, he's been recovering from shoulder surgery. He played with a bad shoulder all year last year. His lack of development during his Sophomore year was troubling, and no one outside of the program knew that he was hurt until after the season had ended. When the news hit, Dino's struggles this past year started to make sense.

still though, get rid of the damn farmers tan.

dang it, is is college basketball season yet!

Glad that Wake plays in the Bahamas in August.

Going to be breaking in five new players this year that will all be receiving PT, imo. Luckily, one of them was a redshirt, so he already has a good rapport with the returning players. When you're breaking that many new players in, its good to have an August trip, where you'll be facing decent competition.

North Carolina responds to the NCAA's allegations: What it said and what's next

Allegation No. 1: Jan Boxill, women's basketball athletic academic counselor in the Academic Support Program for Student-Athletes (ASPSA) knowingly provided extra benefits in the form of impermissible academic assistance and special arrangements to women's basketball student-athletes.

Response: North Carolina agrees "that in 15 of the 18 alleged instances, Boxill provided extra benefits in violation of Bylaw 16.11.2.1 in her capacity as an ASPSA academic counselor." However, UNC is arguing that her actions do not fall under the NCAA's definition of unethical conduct, "even though her actions fell short of the University's own standards."

Allegation No. 2: Deborah Crowder, former student services manager in the African and Afro-American Studies department, violated the NCAA principles of ethical conduct during the NCAA's investigation.

Response: UNC agrees with the charges relating to Crowder's failure to cooperate "despite repeated requests by the enforcement staff and the University."

Allegation No. 3: Dr. Julius Nyang'oro, former chair of the African and Afro-American Studies department, violated NCAA principles of ethical conduct during the NCAA's investigation into UNC.

Response: UNC agrees with the charges relating to Nyang'oro's failure to cooperate "despite repeated requests by the enforcement staff and the University."

Allegation No. 4: From the 2005 fall semester through the 2011 summer semester, the University of North Carolina violated the NCAA Principle of Rules Compliance in its failure to monitor the ASPSA and the African and Afro-American Studies department.

Response: North Carolina is fighting the failure to monitor charge, believing the issues fall under the jurisdiction of the school's accrediting agency, SACSCOC, not the NCAA.

Allegation No. 5: The NCAA has charged UNC with a violating the NCAA Principle of Institutional Control and Responsibility.

Response: North Carolina does not agree with the lack of institutional control charge. Bubba Cunningham said Tuesday on a conference call that while academic irregularities didn't meet the standards of the university they didn't necessarily violate an NCAA bylaw.

The NCAA hammered Coach JB with "lack on institutional control" over less. We'll see what they do here.

A lot of people think that they are going to skate. Holy crap though, this has been going on since before the 2010 football season started. Long time.

exactly! I think the NCAA is well within their reach and "scope"

100 more days until CBB tips off.

Just found out last night there won't be a way for me to watch or listen to Wake's games in the Bahamas in two weeks. Bummer.

Another problem with it, imo, is that it just isn't an NC thing anymore.

Also, I'm willing to bet some sponsors got into the NBA's ear about this. This was a business decision by the NBA, not a "civil rights" issue. Only thing I take issue is the NBA's fake bullshit about the whole thing.

Nebraska graduate transfer Andrew White picks Syracuse basketball


Not bad Jonvi!!!

That is some big news for SU.

 

[Hitman Hart]

Good pickup by Syracuse. He was a very efficient shooter last year. 48 FG% and 41% from deep.

Syracuse has done well with postgrads this year. Reminds me of Louisville last year.

4* and Top 50 player in the class of 2017, Brandon Randolph, is visiting Syracuse this weekend. UNC and Wake (and maybe Louisville) are also going after Randolph.
