Maybe THIS is why Harbaugh wants back in the NFL

There was plenty there, they just chose to let it slide.

From the NYTimes:

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — The N.C.A.A. did not dispute that the University of North Carolina was guilty of running one of the worst academic fraud schemes in college sports history, involving fake classes that enabled dozens of athletes to gain and maintain their eligibility.

But there will be no penalties, the organization said, because no rules were broken.

In a ruling that caused head-scratching everywhere except Chapel Hill, the N.C.A.A. announced on Friday that it could not punish the university or its athletics program because the “paper” classes were not available exclusively to athletes. Other students at North Carolina had access to the fraudulent classes, too.

Five years later and y’all still whining about this. There were no fake classes and fraudulent grades. This has now been proven. We’re the liberal studies classes up to standard with the rest of the university? Probably not; however the facts and numerous investigations and hearings exonerated UNC. 

a lot of people were mad at UNC and NCAA because they (as low life fans of other schools) invested a lot of time and energy into it. Y’all need to be mad at people like Danny Kane and Jonny Solomon for stringing you along for clicks and website traffic.

Didn't something similar happen with Pete Carroll when he left USC

Yes Pete the Cheat broke damn near every rule in the book but got a pair of national championships and won a ton of games. Those USC teams with Bush and Leinart were incredible. of course after he was caught cheating he jumped ship to the NFL and left a mess which some would argue they still haven’t recovered from. 
 

USC, like duke, is a private school so they can generally tell nosy reporters to F off and don’t have to respond to FOIA requests.

Jim McDaniel or Mike Harbaugh?  🙃

Are they related to ( Mike McDaniel and Jim Harbaugh )? 🙂 Of those two, Mike McDaniel would probably want less control and be easier to work with.

Let's just hope we get one of them because either would be a great choice.

Please. They had fake classes for basketball players. That is cheating. Funny you think NCAA exoneration means anything. They are a complete joke. 

This is your opinion. Many, many others including the NCAA and every reputable educational governing body disagree. 
 

don’t like it? Write your congressman (who probably graduated from UNC)

Some of you Panthers fans kill me. After the last 4 years I’ll take Harbaugh’s “trending down” 4 years. He’s proven his ENTIRE coaching career that he knows what he’s doing. From Stanford to 49ers to Michigan. He knows how to run a successful winning program. Like what else do you want? 

He gets put in bad situations and still wins too

Stanford was a joke and he had them finish in the Top 5 by year 4

Niners hadnt made the playoffs in 9 years and he went to the NFCC his first 3 years

Michigan was becoming irrelevant and brought them back to being a title contender

The violations include alleged impermissible contact with recruits during the NCAA-mandated dead periods, as well as the use of a defensive analyst for on-field coaching activities, a rules violation. Sources told ESPN that Harbaugh's cooperation with NCAA enforcement staff during the investigation is also being examined. Harbaugh could face penalties that include a multigame suspension, sources said.
 

Hardly earth shattering stuff there

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
