Another academic scandal; UNC is f-cked

Statute of limitations can be set aside if it is shown to be part of a pattern that continued into the present 5-year window. If they can trace this all the way back to Choo Choo Justice, they can use it.

I think it's safe to say that UNC didn't have an AFAM studies dept. when Choo-Choo was around.

Pat Forde with a solid take. As he points out, this makes a nice test case to see if Emmert actually means the words he spoke about the Penn Sate penalties.

Forde and Poz should go to Chapel Hill and continue their jock-sniffing tour.

Nah, they can stay away as far as I'm concerned.

And it gets dirtier ...

When Tyler Hansbrough, the former UNC star, was a senior, his mom got a job as a “fundraiser for the foundation that serves” UNC’s dental school. Her salary was $95,000 a year.
Through a detailed audit, the school noticed something odd – Tami Hansbrough traveled a lot on the school dime, often to where her son, Tyler was playing. (The school says she was doing some fundraising on those trips.) But she was also taking trips – again, on UNC’s dime – to see her son Ben play for Notre Dame. And she was also taking trips – unspecified, but not job-related – with the school’s chief fundraiser, Matt Kupec, a former UNC QB in the 70s. The two were dating. UNC paid for those, too.
If possible, the story gets better:
In mid-2010, Kupec sought to hire a fundraiser. By then, Kupec was in a relationship with Hansbrough, Thorp said, and Thorp had heard that she might be interested in the job. When Thorp learned that she would be reporting to Kupec in the new job, Thorp told Kupec he could not hire her because it would violate the university’s nepotism policy since they were in a relationship.
The position disappeared and was never filled. A short time later, another fundraising position surfaced, only this time it reported to Winston Crisp, who is the vice chancellor for student affairs. Thorp said he had supported the position being created.
After what Thorp said was a proper job search with multiple candidates, Crisp hired Hansbrough for the job. But Hansbrough traveled regularly with Kupec, who separated from his wife in October 2009. The marriage ended two years later, Orange County records show.

So this is out, now. It's been an open secret in Chapel Hill for awhile.

All I know is that I knew of the Kupec-Hansbrough relationship at least two years ago. I do have something of an inside connection, but not that inside. If I knew of it, then plenty of other people knew of it.

you only get $95,000 for fucking your boss and having your kid lead the basketball team? That seems low.

Perhaps the idea was a salary less than six figures would attract less attention. More than $100,000 tends to jump off the page for anybody perusing the ledger.

This just keeps getting better and better ...

Really surprising since Roy ran such a clean program at KU and didn't leave any kind of stink trail at all.
