Same info as has been out for a few years, but ESPN of course is putting it front & center because they got an interview. McCants must need money. Don't see why else he does this interview unless something went sour with him and Roy Boy.

http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/...k-sham-classes

Rashad McCants, the second-leading scorer on the North Carolina basketball team that won the 2004-05 national title, told ESPN's "Outside the Lines" that tutors wrote his term papers, he rarely went to class for about half his time at UNC, and he remained able to play largely because he took bogus classes designed to keep athletes academically eligible.


McCants told "Outside the Lines" that he could have been academically ineligible to play during the championship season had he not been provided the assistance. Further, he said head basketball coach Roy Williams knew about the "paper-class" system at UNC. The so-called paper classes didn't require students to go to class; rather, students were required to submit only one term paper to receive a grade.

can't get a job cause hes admittedly stupid. couldn't pass black studies classes on his own. I took a class like that in college for easy elective credit, the theme of the class is; "Why do black fathers leave their families?" and they blame literally every single downfall of the black race on slavery

he can't get in the NBA

so why not get some headlines

[CWD]

who cares?

how long has it been since unc was in the conversation?

[kmarinouofm]

why does the NCAA exist still ?

you guys don't know half of this story. McCant's problem wasn't his AFAM classes, he was getting all A's/B's in those classes, it was his other classes that were killing his GPA, which (wink wink) is the whole reason UNC set up that fake AFAM dept in the first place. Their players were literally not going to class all semester long and then given fake A/B grades for little to no work turned in. It's crazy all the stuff coming out of that place. It makes SMU look like the YMCA. When all this stuff finally breaks in the right media circles I don't see how UNC doesn't get the death penalty. Unless of course the NCAA is on the whole damn thing and protecting one of their "blue bloods."
