This is much worse than trading your own memorabilia for tattoos or a $500 handshake after a good game. This would strike against the notion of a "student-athlete" more so than another billion-dollar TV contract.
These types of headlines have been swirling around UNC for years now. No, I don't know how they've gone this long without escaping NCAA justice either.
