OT: You won't believe what Hurricane Florence did to the UNC football suspensions!!!

While perusing the E$PN website, I came across this David Hale article (link after excerpt):

UNC players' suspensions won't be affected by game canceled for hurricane

The cancellation of North Carolina's game against UCF this weekend because of Hurricane Florence will not impact the expected return date for 13 Tar Heels players suspended for selling Nike gear this offseason, the school confirmed Tuesday.

Nothing unexpected for one of the NCAA's 'golden child' programs.

This is a terrible trend in headlines on here. What is this? Facebook?

Yeah, while somewhat humorous, we really need to stop with the clickbaity titles. In fact, direction to avoid the use of clickbaity links and titles should be placed in the Community Guidelines, so that such posts and comments can be suitably downvoted. IM(ns)HO.

Yesterday I used this in response to my wife telling me about kids showing up to class without the proper materials. Going to have to use it more often in that situation

Seems to me that you should be suspended a certain number of actual games, not just games where you think you can do without the players.

I will admit I did such as humor. I did put an "OT:" ahead of it!

In all seriousness, it's stupid for UNCheat to have a cancelled game count. Those bastards! It really pisses me off how they get away with all the stupid shit that a respectable university would get reamed for.

I hope we bury these bastards when we play them in October!

Leg up for burying those bastards this year. Let Fuente be the on-field punisher of UNCheat when the ACC/NCAA/the school itself are too chicken shit to do it themselves.

I was wondering about this, ..guess I've got my shitty answer.

Quarterback Chazz Surratt and six other players have been sitting out what was expected to be a four-game suspension, but the school clarified that the discipline was for 30 percent of the team's schedule, not specifically four games. Because UNC will now potentially play just 11 games, those players will be eligible to return on Sept. 27 for the Tar Heels' game against Miami.

I like the subtle admission that they won't be going to a bowl game.

So if the game is rescheduled I assume UNC gets to pick what game those students miss or ignore it all together like they do with anything regarding academic standards.

The fact that they used 30% and not 25% (3/12) or 33%(4/12) tells you all you need to know. Obviously they couldn't make their same point if they said the original discipline was for 25% or 33% because 3/11 = 27%. 30% at least makes it look close.
I'd like to see UNC get penalized further for this BS, but it will at least be enjoyable to see them continue losing instead.

The fact that it was stated as a percentage beforehand tells me one thing..... They paid hookers to sleep with the weather gods in exchange for a cancelled ass kicking.

If you really need me to put the "/s" after that, take a lap.

Warning- Filter lost.

UNC has a football team?

So, 30% of 11 games is 3.3. Will they sit out the first quarter or so of 4th game? I'm guessing they will round down or since they don't do classes, they will ignore my post!
How dare they!

30% of 12 games was 3.6 games so since they rounded up when they handed out the punishment, it makes sense that they should continue with the same logic? However, General Logic 101 was apparently taught at UNC.

This hurricane is truly a force of nature...but if it enables us to cancel the series with ECU, I shall consider it a gift from the gods

Yeah I don't want this kind of title becoming a trend on here. I'll use the only power I have, down voting, on any post on here that does.

I'm DVing the post and and comments by the OP in the thread in question. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Raise your hand if you are truly surprised by this... I mean honestly most NCAA punishments are less than a slap on the wrist. I feel like I am dealing with stupid parents (not MY personal parents-- the stupid parents of my students). For instance: when I was working at a day care during high school, and this kid got mad at me and dug his fingernails into the back of my hand (he went beyond scratching me) and drew blood. I told his mother when she came to pick him up and she looked at him and said "That's not nice." By the way I still have a scar 20 years later.

Agreed. We're better than this. Talk about something else please.

There is nothing wrong with this title. I chuckled and the content is relevant. More importantly the content is not in slideshow format.

THAT'S what this site is missing. The ability to add slideshows so that more pages get hits. GENUIS!

What most of yall dont realize is that something that starts in irony inevitably progresses out of irony and into normalcy and acceptance.

It's like when you and your friends call each of "Bruh" ironically......and then you just....can't.....stop....bruh,
