North Carolina Player Expected to Miss Game with LSU
The NCAA investigation into dealings between agents and players at North Carolina has wound down. As of today, one player will not be eligible for the game on Saturday in Atlanta against LSU. Marvin Austin will not be playing in that game, but the full extent of his punishment has not yet been finalized. It was reported on this blog that sources close to the program expected the penalty to be a single game, but that is now in question.
As was expressed by the university last Thursday, there are suspicions that some members of the football team have been given inappropriate assistance with their class work. The school has been working diligently to, at minimum, clear the players that are completely without blame so that they can play this weekend.
Similar sources have passed along that the only players whom have not been cleared at this time are Charles Brown and Kendric Burney. The status of each will likely be determined very near to game time on Saturday.

For someone with "inside" sources, where were all of the blog posts when the cheating scandal was breaking? Surely someone with inside information like yourself would have had 4-5 more posts since your last one about all of the details going on?
ReplyDeleteSUCK IT WUFFIES!!
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS THE YEAR WE AWAKEN THE SLEEPING GIANT ON THE HILL!!
I'm laughing at all the hole fans that believe this dribble. "Dr. Blog" has been proven wrong on every single one of his posts.
ReplyDeleteWe're laughing at you "go Heels" for your naivety, including Dr. Blog.
ReplyDelete"Sources say that the outcome will not damage the program as a whole. Rather repayment of any benefits and or minimal suspensions are likely. The NCAA questioning of John Blake was limited to questions about the activities of players and not his own recruiting.
ReplyDelete"No matter the decision made, those outlets will need to find some other stories to hype soon. Perhaps there is a girls volleyball team getting free ice cream somewhere."

Keep up the good work, Doc.
Laughing at US? We are CAROLINA!! You cannot LAUGH AT what is BETTER THAN YOU!! LOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteDid YOU REALLY THINK that CAROLINA WOULD BE A PART OF ANY SORT OF CORRUPTION??!! You guys must be IDIOTS!
I HATE YOU WUFFIES.. YOU WANTED TO DANCE ON OUR INNOCENT GRAVES BUT YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO SETTLE FOR A BUTCH-SLAP LATER THIS YEAR!!
GO HEELS!!
We? Thats the funniest thing you've said yet.
ReplyDeleteHey go heels, make sure you have the balls to come back on here to eat your crow like a good little boy.
ReplyDeleteWHY are you GUYS so OBSESSED WITH US?
ReplyDeleteYOU can't HANDLE THE TRUTH that DR. BLOG BRINGS TO YOU EVERY WEEK!! YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE HEELS!!!
I know the ONLY WAY you WUFFPUPS would survive at UNC is to have SOMEONE DO THE PAPERS FOR YOU, but DON'T ASSUME OUR PLAYERS NEEDED IT!!
Dude, chill out. I love UNC too, but we did once hand out 75-85% A's and B's. I think the grade inflation has gone down, but I had a few summer classes at State and they were all harder than half of mine at UNC.
ReplyDeleteAnd after Dr. Blog's previous errors, I'm taking this with not just a grain of salt, but the whole damn shaker.
Just wondering if tits Mcgee will be weariing his freak'em dress on the sidelines this weekend. Oh snap that's right he will not be in Atlanta he will probably be in California training with his UNC playaz
ReplyDeleteExactly what has been "proven".
ReplyDeleteNothing yet.
Hey look at that! Austin is now officially out for the LSU game. Just like the post said.
ReplyDeleteWell...he wasn't wrong about Marvin Austin...but then again, my 4 year old son could have predicted that. The other 14 players?...lol....
