I have to admit ---- as much as I was fully expecting this flabbergasting decision, I still find myself pretty depressed today.  There is a weight on my mind and a gnawing frustration that corruption has won again, and that additionally, it has stripped away the joy and legitimacy of college hoops (and football for that matter) from me forever.

Sure, corruption has existed, but if anything, we figured that most of the significant infractions would be exposed eventually and punished accordingly.  From here on out, we'll never be able to take a UNC win seriously ever again, and I'll always be wondering about what level of cheating the top team(s) have needed to partake in in order to cheat their way to the top.

The UConn laptop theft case in the 2000s was my first discouraging taste of this.  Now, instead of just limited to one team, the NCAA has opened up the floodgates to allow any and all teams to cheat ad infinitem without consequences.  From a fan perspective, I will never be able to take this sport (or any major NCAA sport) seriously again .
