Today Coach Cal confirmed what we already believed to be true: the new series with UCLA will serve as a replacement for the North Carolina series for two years. “North Carolina has already sent us a contract for after those two years,” Cal said today. “This is plugging that hole right now.”
Kentucky is scheduled to play North Carolina in Las Vegas in 2016 as part of the CBS Sports Classic, so the home-and-home series needed that year off. But taking off one season throws off both schedules, so the two sides agreed to take a two-year hiatus to accommodate the CBS tournament and keep their home schedules balanced for the future.
Therefore, we get a trip to UCLA next season and a visit from the Bruins in 2016 before it’s back to Cats and Heels.
In related news, No. 5 North Carolina stomped No. 22 UCLA last night, 78-56. We’ll see them in back-to-back weekends beginning December 13th with UNC coming to Rupp, followed by a subzero trip to Chicago on December 20th. Can’t wait.

Will UNC have a team then? Seriously, if they are competitive then, it means
they have avoided sanctions and scholarship losses.

So far there's no word if the NCAA is even looking into the academic indiscretions at UNC!

I can't see how UNC can get off that easy.

Sometimes it boggles my mind how the NCAA rules on a lot of things.

We haven't heard the whole story yet so maybe there will be some justice after all.

It's either the lull before the storm or the storm has past by and gone a different direction and betting on the latter.

Recruiting is the prime reason for going to CA to play. We manage to sneak one away from the west coast once in a while but we seem to lose out on some of the best guys out west. I don't expect to see much out of the NCAA on UNC until the end of the BB season. There will be sanctions but they might not be as severe as we would like to see.

OR as severe as they should be? We are talking about Academic FRAUD here, right?
