Your day has come!

Okay you Carolina haters your wishes are coming true. The Tarheel Football program is facing a lot of trouble from the NCAA. As a Tarheel fan I am dissapointed in the actions that have transpired over the last month. Carolina got caught.("Right Tiger"?) Plain and simple! The stereotype is everyone does it. At least until you get caught. Apparently Carolinas flawless record of academic achievement has been tarnished, and "oh boy" the jokes will come a flying! People are already upset because Carolina gets more press than any other school in the state. It will now be a good read for the typical Carolina Hater. I heard someone say "thank goodness its not the basketball team". In my heart I feel it still happened.(Regardless of the sport) I really felt like this team was good and tough enough to hang with the big boys and possibly earn something better than a Carquest Bowl bid. Now with all the distractions and possible suspensions they will be lucky to even hang with one of the better teams in LSU. This was supposed to be a measuring stick of where they stand with the nations elite. The SEC has their arrogance in football, like the ACC has in basketball. The SEC deserves to be that way, in having the last 4 BCS National Champions. There were high hopes for this conference and I still think they will be better than in years past. But back to Carolina. Its time to take what ever punishment that comes your way and man up! How could a coach who has a reputation of cleaning up messes left by other coaches and players, not know this was going on? Especially when it was his kid being tutored. Then again I don't know the whole story.You're guilty until proven innocent in this country or something like that. I am more passionate about Carolina Basketball than football. Most Carolina fans are! These infractions could damage recruiting efforts for future prospects in years to come. ABCers(Anybody but Carolina) rejoice! This is the day you have waited for.

I have to say I'm caught somewhat in the middle on this whole story. I'm a state fan. BUT, from a football standpoint, I think it is more fun when UNC is good. Some of my earliest football memories are of Famous Amos and Kelvin Bryant and a couple of really wonderful years for the heels. So I want Carolina to be good. I want State-Carlina to be a good rivalry, and I of course hate anything that tarnishes the ACC.

BUT, state fans have heard so much crap from Carolina fans over the years anytime something goes wrong at State. "Lack of institutional control" brought down Valvano and sent our basketball program into pure hell that took 15 years to get out of. That's 15 years of suffering at the hands of the heels. That's 15 years of UNC journalism grads writing negative stories about NC State.

So yeah, even the best of us at MooU can't help but get a little satisfaction from this.
