Tudor: Tough NCAA punishment, but it could have been worse

Posted Mar 12, 2012
UNC’s football program was handed a significant punishment from the NCAA Monday, but the timing of the announcement was favorable for the Tar Heels. The NCAA put a 2012 bowl ban (and possible ACC title game) on Carolina. But by waiting until after the Feb. 1 scholarship signing date to issue the bowl ruling, the NCAA’s bowl ban didn’t hurt Carolina’s recruiting this year. (Raleigh News & Observer)
