"grinreaperisamoron" CT had some kids not get good grades. A little different than letting a child rapist roam free. If you're unsure why these two things are different bring a blonde wig, $50 cash, and an open mind to the Kimberly Avenue bridge in West Haven, CT for a demonstration.

Funny, why would you even keep the stats in the record book if he was not eligible to play? They should be expunged...... 305 Days ago

ya, his stats from 08 are supposed to be vacated and yet even espn reports them and list him as the current record holder at unc counting his 08 season. doubt unc even bothers with an asterisk in a couple of years 305 Days ago

yawn......old news. we all know what hakeem did on the field, screw an asterisk.
lets instead talk about the BIG TIME commitments UNC got today: 4* DT Greg Webb (decommitted from penn state) and 4* DE Dajaun Drennon.
webb holds offers from every elite program in the country and drennon has offers from most. fedora is recruiting like an animal. go HEELS! 305 Days ago

Yeah but they don't have the trainers handing out PED's like they do over at NC State. Also, UNC suspends their guilty players ahead of the NCAA & for significant game time. TOB suspended his guilty for only the season opener against Cupcake U, even though the benefits of cheating with PED's lasted the entire season. Fortunately, the NCAA stepped in this spring & told TOB his leniency wouldn't be tolerated. 303 Days ago

and AMERICA is supposed to believe that NO ONE inside the UNC football program in 2008 knew that Nicks was receiving fraudulent academic assistance??? MODERN DAY SPORTS SUMMED UP IN A NUTSHELL: protect wins & $$$$ ... ethics/laws/morals be damned .... the facts are different but the immoral formula remains the same whether it is the Penn State story, this one, or any other ... the stench of immorality is at an all time high - Justice served 305 Days ago

This might be the dumbest post of the day. A former player who never played another down after being ruled ineligible & the only 2 seasons he did play have already been vacated is going to arbitration with his agent b/c of a contract dispute, and you think anyone with the NCAA or UNC gives a rat's @ss? Sorry, but... yawn. 305 Days ago
