Tar Heel Fan on August 21st, 2009 |  Comments are closed Wait…the charges were dismissed? Okay, never mind then. I imagine the judge in Orange County saw this was nothing more than a fight between two teammates that just so happened to take place in a dorm room instead of the locker room and probably decided he would let Butch Davis handle it. Which according to [...] Continue reading Free Donte Paige-Moss! The Wake County Courthouse apparently. Via WRAL.com: Wall, a 6-4 playmaker, averaged 21 points, seven rebounds and nine assists for Raleigh Word of God Christian Academy this past season. He is the No. 1-ranked recruit in the country by both Rivals.com and Scout.com and among the last top players yet to commit. Authorities said Wall, [...] Continue reading Wall’s Next Visit? Update: The N&O has a fuller account that quite frankly is one of the more bizzare things I have seen. During a bail hearing Thursday afternoon, Assistant District Attorney Morgan Whitney said the three players had gone to a couple of downtown Chapel Hill bars to celebrate one of their birthdays. They met Washington, Taylor [...] Continue reading Three UNC Football Players Assaulted[UPDATED] Tar Heel Fan on October 17th, 2006 | Comments are closed Miami attempted to put the whole brawl controversy to rest today by holding a press conference and having unversity president Donna Shalala shake her fist at the camera and swear it will never happen again. “This university will be firm and punish people who do bad things,” Shalala said. “But we will not throw any [...] Continue reading The Miami Mess, Part 2 Tar Heel Fan on October 16th, 2006 | Comments are closed Most anyone with a pulse has heard the Miami and Florida International brawled during their game on Saturday.

Nifong turned over 1300 pages of evidence which the defense promptly leaked to the media. According to Fox News the evidence basically shreds any [...] Continue reading Game. Set. Reasonable Doubt Tar Heel Fan on May 16th, 2006 | Comments are closed At least that is the way it seems. The Durham County DA Mike Nifong got his third indictment in the Duke lacrosse rape case. The grand jury, who mind you, only hears evidence from the DA, indicted Duke senior co-captain David Evans on charges of rape, sexual assault, and kidnapping. Now based on what has [...] Continue reading Durham DA Spins Wheel, Indicts Third Player Tar Heel Fan on May 11th, 2006 | Comments are closed I am not sure what kind of game the Durham DA Mike Nifong is playing but it is most certainly a dirty one.
