UNC-Chapel Hill officials and coaches appeared on Wednesday before the NCAA Committee on Infractions. The first part of the long-awaited hearing, which is the next step in an NCAA investigation that began more than three years ago, lasted for 10 hours.
It continues on Thursday morning. The hearing is closed and nobody attending it – neither UNC officials nor NCAA personnel nor member of the infractions committee – has made a public comment about the proceedings. Details about what happened behind closed doors could remain scarce.
Even so, UNC’s most recent response to the NCAA, as well as correspondence between the two sides during the past year, provides insight into how the university will defend itself during the hearing.
