UNC also announced that senior safety Jonathan Smith has been declared ineligible for the 2010 season. Athletics director Dick Baddour refused to say whether Smith’s situation involved academics or extra benefits.

  1. I wonder if the NCAA will go ahead and make them vacate the Rutgers and East Carolina wins now or later after the ultimate hammer drops in a year or so.

  2. A sportswriter who works on football Saturday at the biggest game in the state? Ed Hardin clearly has it in for the misunderstood UNC football program. Way to speak up, Andy.

    Send my regards to Daniel Webster and if you are any relation to that Thomas Webster kid, the LB over at Grimsley, he is a pretty tough little linebacker……
