Give it up dude, you're pressing hard and the light blue envy is showing. Please name the multiple people, professors, tutors, felons, crips and bloods....lol. You know that sounds crazy and wishful thinking. I've never seen a fanbase so intent on bringing "down" the other evil empire. It's kind of pathetic and sad at the same time because it doesn't "exist" at NC State...flat out BS. Students cheat and athletes cheat and cut corners....don't get it twisted.
Fun fact. Type in "UNC Athletic Scandal" into Google and search. You'll get well over 1 MILLION results returned. That's not "crazy and wishful thinking", that's the scandal you want to broad brush so bad across ALL institutions you are willing to make yourself look like, well, a person that's either really not a sports fan, not able to search, unwilling to accept that maybe, just maybe, UNC isn't this mythical place of higher learning that all others should be measured by or you just can't see facts regardless of how clearly presented they are.
So, since you are unable to search Google yourself, here are a few articles that basically supports me saying UNC has rogue professors, administrators, tutors, support staff, coaches and even some fun random felons thrown into the mix for the heck of it. It is, afterall, the "Carolina Way".
I mean, literally, the list goes on and on. Hey, and look, none of those sources are NCSU websites, fans or alumni! How can that be though?! I thought ONLY State fans wrote bad things about poor little Carolina??? Nope, turns out almost any and every news outlet out there has wrote a piece on the joke that is academic or athletic integrity at UNC.

Enjoy the reading, I know I did.
You are validating my point....it's sad. Why waste your time worrying about UNC with all this useless nonsense? It is over, the NCAA has spoken, UNC is a top academic university and a couple of bad apples won't change that. They're eligible for bowl games, etc. etc.
I feel your pain, NC State has been really mediocre in sports lately and suffers in the shadow of UNC being the flagship university. I think Yow is hiring the right folks and turning things around. It has to be a bitter pill but reveling in the failure of certain professors and players to measure up to standards is just a pitiful way to be......just an objective observer.

I didn't expect a Wal-Mart UNC fan to really understand or read any of those links however I did anticipate your only response being why am I wasting my time, yada yada....Google is pretty cool in that it tells you how long a search took, in my case it took .38 seconds to pull back 1.2 Million (even more today!) when you search "UNC Athletic Scandal". So, I don't consider the 30 seconds of my life it took to pull those articles a waste at all.
And by "certain professors and players" you really mean everyone from Chancellor Thorpe who left in disgrace down to the lowly tutor who did plenty of papers for the athletes and many people in between. This is certainly no small thing and anyone with even an ounce of objectiveness in their body could see that.
a total pretender beat FSU and plenty of people brag about FSU's 5 bowl game winning streak even though they played Northern Illinois last year.
Doesn't matter if the Gators weren't supposed to be there... they were and the Ville beat 'em.
Don't forget FSU played Northern Illinois without their head coach in place who had been hired at NCSU.
The ACC lays plenty of eggs throughout the year and I think Louisville will probably win it this year but I expect them to begin their fall back into mediocrity soon enough now that they are in the ACC. And I'm an ACC fan!

Louisville has one more year before they join... PITT will win the ACC this year.
I doubt Louisville falls back to earth... I have a feeling Strong is building something special. Only problem is if a big time school snatches him up.

Lol, I am not a UNC fan at all.....Univ of Maryland. You're making a mountain out of a molehill and it reeks of psycho envy....again, just an observation. UNC hasn't inched down one bit in academic ranking or reputation and other than the quick mention on TV, blog etc. no one seems to care but the wacky NC State bunch. Do you really think parents are going to dissuade their kid from attending UNC because of a football scandal? If so, shut em all down. The NCAA has spoken, it is over. I think UNC considers Duke a rival and NC State more of a pest that won't go away....again, just an observation....maybe that's why y'all hate em so much.

You're an NC State fan and don't seem to know much else about the ACC, especially football; while seemingly invest more time and energy into hating UNC than NC State's recent mediocre results (good baseball year, bout time!). The ACC needed coaches, it costs a lot of money for good coaches, the league is full of talent. I think they've got a finally got a few good ones and had to pay the piper. At one point, SEC coordinators were making more money the many ACC head coaches and still do in some cases.
Louisville seems to have a good coach who can also recruit well, they should be tough for a while.

The year prior FSU beat Notre Dame in their bowl... what bowl did Notre Dame play in this year... hmm...

Like that would have had any impact on the game. Their star was pure hype and got blown up. Welcome to the real world. That midmajor played no ones all season and fell into that game. They barely won against Army, a team that finished 2-10. They lost to Iowa, a team that finished 4-8. A stupid BCS rule allowed them to play. It was a shame FSU had to play that rotten egg. Smart for the coach to take a job ASAP before the beating as it would have hurt his chances. Shame on the BCS. Sad for all college football fans.
