Larry Brown Sanctioned, But UNC At Least Avoided Making Its Scandal Worse

Brown really, really wanted to coach UNC, but Dick Baddour, who got questioned a lot as UNC's A.D. got this one right.

When you look back over the UNC scandal, there are two events which happened before the scandal broke which are related and should be brought back up now.

First, when UNC was replacing John Swofford, the committee given the job interviewed Matt Kupec and Dick Baddour.

We remember the Poop Sheet at the time (aka the ACC Area Sports Journal) marveling over how the normally very polite and deferential Dean Smith went after Kupec like a Pit Bull, cutting off his answers before he could finish them.
