| Appears Gus Malzahn made a better choice taking the gig at Arkansas State huh? His wife may have been disappointed with that facebook debacle but hindsight it helped them get a head job he should have a chance to excel at. N. Carolina typically isn't a powerhouse and with penalties they may receive they might drop from average in ACC to bottom feeder. | |

It looks kind of suspicious for a kid to take a made up course and get good grades in it when he's pretty much failing at every other course (even the ones that might as well be made up). Kind of makes you question the rigor of the made up course. | that makes sense

| Minimum credits are needed each term to advance towards a degree and remain eligible

They must also complete a certain percentage of their degree requirements after their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year.
Here's more info. Remaining Eligible - NCAA.org | |
