So......does this mean that if anyone in the ACC gets in trouble with NCAA, this is what they'll get???

Or will they somehow justify it as "Well, you'll get worse since they did a bad thing, but they didn't know. Now you know we don't like it, so we'll punish you"

What did you want the ACC to do? Add another year simply

because they did it to us about 30 years ago? Adding an extra year of probation was wrong of the ACC to do to us back then... and it would be wrong if they did it now.

Apr 20, 2012, 3:12 PM

$1000 is one thing. Academic fraud is quite another thing and a much worse offense considering the NCAA's desire to maintain the student-athlete status.

Students get expelled and this stays with them when they try to get into other schools.

Apr 20, 2012, 3:16 PM

as bad as academic fraud, if not worse. And our administration was in on it and there was an attempted cover-up that went deeper at Clemson.

I want us to beat UNC as bad as anyone, and I am angry at how they treated us back in the 80's but I don't believe the current UNC football program did something worse, or as bad as what we did 30 years ago.

I think the ACC owes us an apology, but I am not outraged about the ACC not adding an extra year. It's obvious people here just want revenge.

Re: Buying cars and giving large sums of cash to players is just

I have read this several times in the past and most of it again now, and I hope you realize that most, in fact almost all, of the infractions listed below that were substantial, were "offered". It doesn't say they had proof they were given. The things that were given were very minor, in most cases, (telephone bills, some articles of clothing, transportation and food over a weekend, etc.), and most of these accusations were made by 2 players from Tennessee that did not even attend Clemson. Now the granting of a scholarship to a friend, is serious, and it was worded like it did happen. That is serious, but, honestly, is that as bad as academic fraud? I think not. I don't mean to minimize our past transgressions, but theirs deserve more than a reprimand.

it is disturbing anytime one of our member institutions has NCAA infractions issues" and if it is Clemson, then they should get an extra year of penalties. However, in light of the fact that we (the ACC) are in great fear of having some of our best universities poached from our conference, we are in no position to issue additional penalties at this time. In other words, the member institutions are on to me and my screw ups over the years. I need this gig so that my son will stay employed, so I'm not going to push the issue. Go Heels!

Mr. Swofford, sir, it is time NOW for you to step down. Bring no further embarassment to your alma mater and to the Atlantic Coast Conference. Go away.

...if *anyone* of some importance, Dabo, Terry Don or Clemson's Pres would get involved, we could get some attention focused on this. Otherwise, Clemson has the appearence of just sitting back and taking it....

Re: Front Page Story: ACC issues "public reprimand" to UNC


Apr 20, 2012, 10:21 PM

My Gawd!! Did they really???
This is too much. This is draconian!! This is brutal!! The very essence of cruel and unusual!!
A PUBLIC reprimand??
But they only cheated a little. What's a little academic fraud?
Why did the ACC come down so hard on them. It's not fair to use them just to make an example.
But at least this will let the other schools know what could happen to them if they decide to cheat.
But still, I feel SO bad for them. It could take years to recover from the embarrasment and humiliation.
And they can't play for the championship this year either. And they had everything lined up to make a run.
This just might have been their year. This is EXTREME!!

Oh well. At least I feel better now when I think back to all those years ago that we only got an extra year of probation.
I'm not sure I could have stood the ridicule of a public reprimand.

Amazing how you were so adamant to penalize Clemson during the mid 80's and when you alma mater does even greater harm to themselves and their fellow institutions, you turn the other cheek with a "Public Reprimand"... Please - give me a break. HYPOCRITE!

Academic fraud is far worse than any trinkets and junk type violations. I agree they should be reprimanded publicly, but they certainly deserved additional sanctions, as well. What a bunch of pansies we have running this conference, and if Barker had any nads, he should have demanded additional, "Example Setting" sanctions and walked out of the process in protest, if they weren't granted. That is what UNC's or Duke's Presidents would have done, it we were the culprit. I really did not expect anything else, though.
