Big Trouble For The Tarheels...

So yesterday, Butch Davis was fired from the head football coach position at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. This was because of the NCAA allegations on some players that recieved "gifts" of some sort. Everyone knows (or at least should know) that recieving gifts while playing sports in college is strictly prohibited. This is because most of the players are on scholarships, which can run up to all four years that they are in college. That can range up from $40,000 to $100,000, depending on the school and whether it is a public or private institution. So they already recieved their "pay" by going to school for free and an opportunity to go pro. But rules are rules, and I'm glad that they are being enforced. UNC has a lot of work ahead of them to regain their reputation back. I am sure they can, but will take some time.

Here are just some of the schools that are on NCAA probation:

1. Georgia Tech
2. University of Alabama
3. University of Central Florida
4. Florida State University
5. Florida International University
6. University of Memphis
7. University of New Mexico
8. University of Southern California

This schools have been put on probation by the NCAA. If you want to know the reasons, then visit www.ncaa.org.

UNC football commitee are in the process now of finding a temporary football coach in order for the TarHeels to compete this season.

.....by the way, Go WolfPack!
