Duke and UNC both named as violators in the FBI probe, with Wendell Carter named specifically as someone who received impermissible benefits:

I haven't seen a dollar amount, but the UNC connection is Tony Bradley. Bradley's dad says it was the agency ordering pizzas when the Bradleys met with thm in the process of interviewing/hiring an agent.
While there are a couple of big names and some large loan amounts, this looks mostly like a bunch of meals where the agent picked up the tab and a few loans that would equate to spending money or maybe one car payment. Im not saying that any of that is right, but I really hope the FBI has been doing more work here than busting folks over some free Changs Spicy Chicken and Little Caesars Extra Most Bestest. Surely, there is more important work for them to be doing.
Terrible execution down the stretch, bad turnovers, missed free throws and some questionable officiating (which shouldnt have been an issue) were all reasons that they blew another double digit lead on the road to an inferior team.

Ridiculous
The ridiculous part of this statement is including UNC as an inferior team. I won't argue that Carolina is equally talented, but as a team, they're pretty close.
Lol Duke is only the better team if you're using recruiting rankings
