UNC Tutorgate Press Conference Notes..

This one may be serious:

Notes from press conference:

-This is potentially quite major and UNC might be losing a lot of players.

-The tutor did work as a nanny or tutor for head coach Butch Davis, tutoring or nannying his son.

-UNC learned of the infractions through joint interviews with the NCAA. That means they might be unable to claim they self reported.

-Carolina is a serious academic school and the honor code might require, independently of the NCAA, that the players be expelled.

-The investigation concerns the majority of the UNC starting defense and some offensive players.

-The investigation is still in the early stages. It is unlikely to wrap up soon and is unlikely that the players will play during the investigation.

-Heads will roll if necessary. The Carolina way will not be compromised.
