North Carolina has opted not to issue a statement following two days in front of the NCAA Committee on Infractions. So after about 15 hours worth of discussions, both sides left Nashville with no comment. Next step is a decision from the committee about possible sanctions.
Roy Williams leaves Nashville at 115 P central as NCAA hearings with regard to the UNC academic scandal conclude midway through day 2. The NCAA will have a press call in 60 to 90 days with a full report of its findings. North Carolina is expected to release a short written statement soon.
North Carolina's hearing in front of the NCAA Committee on Infractions is now over. Roy Williams and Sylvia Hatchell just left the meeting room with other UNC officials. A statement from the university is expected soon. All that's left now is waiting on a decision from the committee, and that could take months.
Day 2 in Nashville for North Carolina basketball coach Roy Williams who arrived ten minutes early to prepare for what may be another marathon day of questions from NCAA investigators. UNC is facing five allegations related to an academic scandal that spanned nearly two decades in Chapel Hill. Williams led the Tar Heels to two championships during that period (2005 and 2009). The NCAA Committee on Infractions will eventually rule on whether athletes on those and other UNC teams maintained eligibility in large part because of bogus classes offered by the African Studies department.
Roy Williams arrives for Day 2 of North Carolina's hearing in front of the NCAA Committee on Infractions. Some of North Carolina's contingent already has left, including football coach Larry Fedora.
UNC men's basketball coach Roy Williams spent nearly ten hours inside a heavily secured conference room bordered by ropes and shuttered by shades, as the NCAA questioned Williams and other UNC officials about their knowledge or involvement in an academic scandal that spanned nearly two decades in Chapel Hill. The NCAA has slapped UNC with five allegations, most notably a lack of institutional control and with providing athletes with impermissible benefits. Williams, accompanied by his attorney Jim Cooney, was joined by Carolina women's basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell, current football coach Larry Fedora, Chancellor Carol Folt, athletic director Bubba Cunningham and Deborah Crowder, a retired administrator in the African Studies department who played a central role in creating a bogus curriculum that the NCAA says disproportionately benefited UNC athletes more than it did the rest of the student body. None of the coaches has yet been accused of wrongdoing and the school has adamantly denied violating any NCAA bylaws. The hearings are scheduled to continue Thursday morning and Williams is expected to face another day of questions. The NCAA's ruling may be weeks if not months away.
North Carolina's hearing in front of the NCAA Committee on Infractions will continue Thursday morning in Nashville, Tenn. The NCAA allotted two days for the hearing to address five major allegations, including lack of institutional control, related to paper classes in the Department of African and Afro-American Studies.
North Carolina's turn in front of the NCAA Committee on Infractions ended Wednesday evening after nearly 10 hours in the meeting room. North Carolina and NCAA officials left without comment.

UNC basketball coach Roy Williams is in Nashville this morning, heading to a hearing where he is facing questions from the NCAA regarding his knowledge and potential involvement in an academic scandal that allegedly spanned nearly two decades in Chapel Hill. Williams has been adamant that he had no knowledge of the academic impropriety that the NCAA says improperly benefitted UNC athletes. Williams has not been accused of wrongdoing. UNC faces five allegations none of which involve academic fraud. However the Committee on Infractions could add allegations during the course of the hearing which is scheduled for today and tomorrow and is closed to both the public and the media.
A watershed moment that may have a significant impact on the tenuous relationship between the billion dollar college sports industry and academics is playing out here in Nashville this morning. The University of North Carolina has finally come before the NCAA Committee on Infractions to address five allegations, including lack of institutional control, which stem from an academic scandal that allegedly spanned nearly two decades in Chapel Hill and involved hundreds of UNC athletes. Head basketball coach Roy Williams will be questioned about his knowledge and possible role in the scandal. The NCAA will also question head football coach Larry Fedora, and women's basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell. The hearing is closed to the public and media and the outcome may not be known for weeks if not months.
North Carolina athletic director Bubba Cunningham, football coach Larry Fedora and men's basketball coach Roy Williams are part of the school contingent walking into the NCAA Committee on Infractions hearing.
