How much did unc pay Michael Jordan to go there?
b/c cops make so much $$$. amirite?
re: MJ... whatever it was, best value in cbb recruiting ever right? i mean he
WAS Nike at the very beginning... and now Brand Jordan is synonymous w/ UNC and elite programs across multiple sports.
"academicgate" has kept UNC from getting the elites the past 5+ years. maybe this was a blessing in disguise (heck we're still putting up ships even w/ all the negative recruiting tactics from K, the wolfpack, etc. it's incredible really what Roy has done w/ other coaches pumping recruits full of lies and innuendos about UNC... but i digress).
what is laughable is you think dook is some beacon on the hill when it comes to cbb recruiting. Corey Maggette was paid $85k by dook. that is one example for you. dook and UK have dominated the one-and-done market for the last several years. is there a reason why? well we're about to find out over the next year or so. strap your seatbelt on b/c it is going to be a wild ride.
