Feb 5, 16, 10:22 PM #335If I were a UNC fan, i would go along with that line of thinking too. A lot of people, UK fans included, think nothing will happen, essentially because nothing has happened yet. What most people are forgetting though, is this is an investigation that spans 20 years. That's something the NCAA has not had to deal with yet, so it will take some time.
Like someone else said, it would be wise to follow UL's stance and implicate yourself and self impose sanctions, in hopes that the NCAA doesn't hit you hard. However it doesn't appear that UNC will do that, which will likely leave the NCAA no choice but to hammer down on them when the time comes. That said, it may take 2-4 more years before anything happens, but mark it down, it will happen if the NCAA wants to stay in existence.
I won't get chippy about it with you, but the stance that a lot of UNC fans take is similar to what you posted earlier, which to me, is absurd. I get it, some UNC fans believe they are above the law and can do whatever they want and get a slap on the wrist because UNC brings in money to the NCAA. The idea alone is frightening and everything against what the NCAA is supposed to stand for, but whatever..
But guess what, when you total up a few of the nobody's money (small schools), they would be bringing in as much or more than UNC does per year for the NCAA, don't forget about what the other blue bloods would add to the total. So in reality, the NCAA would be making an extremely bad business decision if they don't hammer down on UNC (assuming they actually did what has already came out) and would likely end their entire existence as a whole.

Feb 5, 16, 10:51 PM #337I don't know what may or may not happen with UNC, but a lot of people are with the belief that nothing major will happen. Personally, I don't see how the NCAA can't hit them hard, they just haven't finished their investigation yet, so nothing has happened.
I'm a UK fan, so take my opinion on that however you want. But I'm not basing what I think will happen to UNC or what would happen to the NCAA on anything other than economics and common sense. Common sense says that UNC does make them quite a bit of money, but no where near enough that you just give them a slap on the wrist and expect the other schools that have had minor infractions to just take it and not revolt. I just don't see it working out that way, no matter how many UNC fan boards I read.
