Statement From UNC AD Dick Baddour on McAdoo Court Case

Posted Jul 14, 2011
"We respect the court's decision. We agree with the court that these kinds of issues should be decided within the framework of the institution and the NCAA. It is disappointing any time a student-athlete can no longer compete in his or her chosen sport, but we will support Michael (McAdoo) and encourage him to finish his education at the University of North Carolina." (Tar Heel Blue)
