If California is doing it, it must be a good thing right?  They've never made bad policy for bad reasons only to beg the Fed for a hand out?

Fug Cali. 

What do you mean a Fed handout? California pays more in taxes than it receives from the Feds. California is a "donor state" one of 10 states that give more in taxes than they receive. Most Southern states are taker states that receiver much more back than what they send Uncle Sam.

Chuds really expressing their displeasure that poor black kids might get paid for making universities millions, I'm shocked you guys are against worker's rights, SHOCKED

Easy to see how so many of you chuds get the idea that professional athletes, particularly the black ones, are ungrateful when reading these comments. Getting an athletic scholarship because you're an athlete doesn't mean you aren't dirt poor. Just say "i resent black people who are blessed athletically and I express my bitterness/jealousy by bemoaning any attempts to compensate them for their labor" and go, fuggo

Some of you chuds do the same thing whenever a pro athlete tries to get better compensated for their talents by renegotiating a contract (something you'd do if you were an athlete too) but you think we don't see your motivations for having said opinions and try to mask resentment as pragmatism and honestly fug you.

 WasThis is nothing but excuse making by people in denial of whether there was an actual problem. You can whinge about Folt's politics all you want, that doesn't change the fact there was mountains of evidence and information brought to light and reported by numerous news outlets showing flat out unethical behavior. You obviously didn't read the information I presented earlier in this thread. 

UNC HAD IT'S ACADEMIC ACCREDITATION PLACED ON PROBATION OVER THIS SCANDAL. THAT IS NOT FAKE NEWS AND IT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS TO MAJOR UNIVERSITIES OVER NOTHING. 

Feel free to bury your head in the sand over this and deny reality if you want. I really don't give a flip, I'm done debating this issue with people who are in denial about the facts and instead trot out tired irrelevant arguments about things like rival schools and the political leanings they don't like of someone involved. Irrelevant is irrelevant. Good day sir.

I bet if I located your real twitter handle it’s probably “duke fan” And then nothing but Negative retweets And comments about The Flagship University of NC. Did you actually attend duke or are you one of those UNCC, EZU, App kids who has probably never set foot on Duke’s campus? 
 

UNC certainly was to blame for some of these self inflicted wounds and they deserved some of the criticism, but the idea that they created a bogus set of curriculum that didn’t exist just to keep athletes eligible is asinine. You are talking about one of the best and most respected universities in the country. You and your buddies on the duke and NCSU message boards invested a lot of time spreading and believing lies and opinions and it must have been a swift kick to the balls when UNC was exonerated. UNC was prepared to fight the NCAA in a court of law and the NCAA would have lost. 
 

move on man. It’s over and the fake news you licked up like a dog licks up it’s own vomit got the best of you and I know it’s hard to accept you were got. Everybodyyyyyy playssss the fool.
