^^So she wrecked her car and rented a Camaro to replace it and gave that to PJ for two months?

"Let me just tell you one thing: there's no story," Thomas said of Hairston. "There's no story here. The basketball player, he's not accepting gifts. There's no story."

"If this was a real problem, you think the NCAA would've been at my door faster than (reporters)?" Thomas said.

"One more nugget: Fats himself also rented the same 2012 Camaro SS from Hertz at RDU one month before Hairston was cited for speeding in it."

This guy must not believe in lawyers cause he just keeps talking.

Well him renting a car for some dude isn't going to get him thrown in jail. He can talk all he wants.

He sure is going out of his way to say this is not an NCAA violation

This morning I woke to find the story all over the local news and TV stations. Anybody that covers sports is talking about it. Except ESPN. Guess they are just not interested in this kind of thing. Just like Emmert.

This. What gets me is how all this is going on while they are supposedly under probation. I guess probation doesn't really mean anything.

7/8/2013 2:05:54 PM

Serious question, is the department on probation or only the football program?

"Being a lifelong (and continued) UNC fan, I can objectively say: 1) Events like this happen at every university. Most are either overlooked or never found out. 2) Having similar events in recent years makes UNC prone to closer examination and thus this is major 3) A bad move by a student athlete barely 20 makes an easy and compelling smack talk forum for all others that hate UNC 4) Hairston should be dismissed from the team 5) Mistakes of this caliber should not go ignored or unaddressed by the university. Quick swift action is needed."

I like the part where he calls Gov Martin's report an embarrassment.

7/8/2013 9:55:01 PM

unrelated, but i'd already forgotten about Graves being suspended and later dismissed from the team. He "failed to comply with team rules". Apparently he was playing in Japan during the earthquake.

Yea they are about as clean as "The U"

7/8/2013 11:09:17 PM

Packpride is doing some great digging, but there are some people who are trying to make nothing into something... I'm glad those guys are not cops.

Reply Yes indeed, I've gotten verified information from a good source that there is soon to be a national story broken which will absolutely shatter the UNC Basketball program into pieces. This stuff goes way beyond just Hairston, by the way. If even half of what I was told is true, then the ol' Tar Heels are freaking buried. I'll post more information as I get it, but still be sure to look for something hitting the national news this week. This is BIG, folks. This post was edited on 7/8 7:00 PM by Alumni Gym"

If something actually comes of this, it will be the greatest gift of all time. So, just in case, I've started listening to Christmas music. Thinking about putting the pink tree up.

Kentucky, duke and state fan boards working together is terrifying. Add two more teams and we'll probably create that bizarro captain planet that loves pollution.

Also, I'm glad someone else says "the orville."

7/9/2013 8:30:03 AM

Again if the football team got away with such blatant and rampant cheating do you seriously think anything is gonna happen to the basketball program? Best case scenario is PJ doesnt play for UNC again and even that seems like a stretch.
