In UNC's defense

Quick! Someone hacked PackMan's account.

I give credit due the Tar Heels when they get something right. In this case, it's 3 hours credit for MATH 61. First-Year Seminar: The Language of Mathematics: Making the Invisible Visible. 3 Credits.

Yes, that's a real course. http://www.catalog.unc.edu/courses/math/

From UNC's Week 4 home game against Pitt. Third Quarter.

Captioned: "They are Tar Heels born. They are Tar Heels bred. When they start losing, they are Tar Heels fled."

Note: Carolina did win this game, although it is uncertain if they will have to vacate the win after another future scandal.

I saw part of game. Looks to me that the pictire was photoshopped to add thousands of fans in the seats

Something that would not surprise me a bit with their rogue PR and athletic departments.

Nice quote on ESPN.

In UNC's past 15 games versus Power 5 foes, it is 2-13. Both wins are against Pitt. So...

Money quote: "Pitt might not be the second-worst team in the ACC, but when you lose to UNC, this is where you end up."

In UNC's defense, math is math. The players were suspended for 30% of the season.

11*30% =3.3 rounded down to 3
12*30%= 3.6 rounded up to 4

More than anything else, this just reveals the stupidity in suspending someone for a percentage of a season. Seasons are played in games - pick a number of games and make it stick.

Has it been mentioned that Duke is ranked #3 in the ACC by the ESPN staff? Clemson and Miami are #1 and 2.

Nothing seems "to stick" to shoe-nc.

NCAA guidelines for punishment are in % of seasons because the guidelines are not sport specific.

Turns out, my idea of comparing the ODU over VT game to App. St. over Michigan was shared by someone a lot closer to the games.

The injured VT QB's dad was an assistant coach at Michigan for the App St. game and gives insider insight in this article.

There aren’t that many sports. Seems like the NCAA should have someone translate that general figure into per-sport game suspensions. Provides certainty and avoids silly outcomes like this.

Fortunately, the game will not be played by those of that speculate on internet BB. I'm confident the coaching staff will make sure our players are focused on what they need to do to defeat VT.

It would be at least somewhat entertaining to see the game played by those that speculate on internet basketball. Could put some faces to monikers.

My face is best suited for radio so I'll do the color commentary.

Or is your face better suited to internet discussions? 😃

Yes, indeed, that applies, too.
