UNC knows all about misrepresenting things

surely that will be objective.

I glossed over it and it doesn't seem like it's inaccurate...but it doesn't really dispute her findings, it just says that when she applied to do the research, she said it was for studying ADHD and learning disabilities in freshmen and that individual students wouldn't be identified

Doesn't really change the fact that they had functional retards on their athletics teams

5/16/2014 1:01:12 PM

they just want people to miss the forest for the trees. it specifically points out how evidence obtained "illegally" is inadmissible. everybody knows that doesn't make you any less guilty.

5/16/2014 1:05:46 PM

I mean it's like they've never done research before, sometimes, you set out to find one thing and find something else. Hey it does happen.

5/16/2014 1:10:50 PM

nothing about that says that she didn't do the research that she claimed, it only says that one of the things she discovered is not what her research was for. and that's not a big deal and doesn't debunk anything.

joey powell will probably say that this ends the debate though, and other wal-mart fans will retweet it

the Browns cut Greg "Stone Hands" Little today

wonder if another team will pick him up as a Punter

Another good twitter follow along the lines of joey powell is @BethelLearning . This dude is so ridiculous and gets trolled pretty hard.

Hahaha, that blog entry on the last page is priceless...

"She said she was gonna look at ADHD and learning disabilities... That's a misrepresentation if she's now talking about reading and literacy levels!" o_O

5/18/2014 12:07:38 AM

that's exactly the kind of behavior that whistleblowers have to exhibit. when something is hiding behind the walls of laws to hide gross violations, you do what you have to do. if that means misrepresenting what you'r researching so you can blow the lid off of decades of bogus classes and illiterate athletes, so be it.

Wait, they should keep a lower profile because UNC is shooting the messenger, and doing a bad job of it at that?

Not totally related to UNC, but Browns' Josh Gordon got a DWI this morning and was bonded out by "Fats" Thomas.

Guess he's still partying with athletes.

PJ Hairston back in the news, punching a high school kid in the face during a pick-up basketball game at the Durham YMCA:

what was the conspiracy story about some athlete's mom being hired by a suspicious Africa charity "business" in DC? I don't remember the details.

7/9/2014 10:27:24 AM

Probably somewhere earlier in the thread. I think it was Marvin Austin's mom possibly meeting Nyangoro in DC regarding a charity that might have been a front to pay the family money if Marvin went to UNC.

I think someone showed that they were both in the city at the same time (while Nyangoro was dealing with "charity" work) and both may have gotten new cell-phones while in the city that were one digit off (possibly indicating that they were activated at the same time?).

I may be remembering incorrectly or a more of this was speculation that I recall. But it was a perfect storm if true.

7/9/2014 12:10:13 PM

so much stuff and so many angles... yet their fanbase won't admit to the first inch of any wrongdoing.

I think that if something like this was going on at State I would be ashamed and I probably would lose my passion for college sports quite a bit. Perhaps if we had been more successful over the last decade I might be able to laugh it off tongue-in-cheek style, but I don't think I would be in the same ballpark of naivety as their fans.

They just get mad and start talking loud about how MARY IS A LIAR, XXXX IS A LIAR, OUT FOR MONEY, EVERYONE DOES IT. Seriously, Fuck UNC and their shitty fans. If nothing happens to them I am going to care a whole lot less about college sports. We all say that there is a UNC bias and I have accepted that after seeing how calls never go for us in crunch time against them... but this would completely validate all of the tin foil hat wearing fans. Whats the point in playing against these assholes if they are allowed to do whatever they feel like?

Re the fight with the high school kid, word is someone has the security camera footage from the YMCA and it doesn't look good for PJ's "the high schooler started it" defense

If something like this was going on at State, there wouldn't be college sports to lose passion for -- the UNC-system Board of Governors would force us to disband all the sports programs overnight as punishment

I DON'T SEE HOW THIS REFLECTS POORLY ON UNC. PJ DOESN'T PLAY FOR UNC ANYMORE.

Shadrach squatted 610 last summer, bfd.

7/22/2014 11:18:18 AM

I didn't know that. Thats pretty impressive. Especially for a kid just coming out of high school.

Hell, State was 4-0 against Butch. I don't think there's many State fans that hate Butch...
