Worse UNC Academic Scandal or FSU Criminals

I am curious as to what others on this board think is worse? The 18 year academic scandal at unc, or the lack of control and the criminal actions going on as fsu?
For me, the unc scandal is worse. It went on for 18 years, deans, advisors, chairs of departments, coaches were all involved. It goes to the heart of what college athletic is suppose to be about. For me there has been nothing even close to as bad as this every. Not even the point scandals at bc comes close.
Yes, fsu has lost control of the football team, but they are following some kind of process, it only to delay as to win games.

Alleged rape,theft,domestic abuse,aggravated assault,property damage, with no or very little accountability for those committing said crimes is far worse than made up classes and test grades. These children will only become worse for society if they are not properly reprimanded and FSU's leaders should be ashamed and held accountable for not disciplining them so they may learn and grow up to be men some day. Just my two cents.

I believe we only know a fraction of what actually goes on down there.
If Tallahassee is this "all in" to protect Jameis and intimidate his accusers, no telling what else they are covering up.

I have strong reason to believe what UNC is doing...

...is being done in many other places as well.
Keep your good players eligibile. Make your APR numbers. Promise your players a high school job to help you recruit after their playing career is over.
Too much money involved with very weak NCAA enforcement.
The only schools who get penalized now are the cheap ones who won't spend the money to defend themselves.

Comparing apples to oranges. Both are disgusting and damage the lives of young people. Both done/aided or covered up by adults who are charged with educating and assisting young people to mature into responsible adults. In both cases there is a massive fail. So I am not able to say which is worse but I think heads should roll and severe sanctions should be applied in both cases. Where are SACS and the Trustees? The taxpayers? Is there anyone who is willing to step forward?

A "flagship academic institution" cheating in academics while promoting itself as a "flagship academic institution. The point of a university IS ACADEMICS.

UNC Academic Scandal is clearly much worse

What their institution has done is a national disgrace. This was not something that was done by a stupid 18 year old at FSU, or even exacerbated by some K-Mart cop in Tallahassee, but rather something done by what was supposed to have been an institution of HIGHER LEARNING.
HIGHER LEARNING? What is it that is being taught here ???? What kind of example is this supposed to be setting? What kind of standard is this for those enrolled or those planning to enrole. How badly damaged is a UNC degree, how far has it's value diminished? What about the rest of the ACC and the negative reflection they have cast on us?
The UNCheat scandle is clearly much worse than anything else that has ever happened within our conference. Nothing else ever came close.
