I'm sure UNC players received benefits over the years but not in the systematic manner that dook and UK players did.I'm not the least bit suspicious on this.

I have a friend that was in Mgt at a Textile plant in NC in the 70s The starters on NClol's Basketball team were on the payroll in the summer None ever stepped foot at the plant as far as he knewI'm sure UNC players received benefits over the years but not in the systematic manner that dook and UK players did.
Dook had few NBA stars in 2013, and a lot more flameouts. They had Boozer and Irving. But also McRoberts, Singler, Shelden Williams, etc.Carolina had a HoF coach & a famous university and, in 2013, I'm not sure that dook had many more NBA players/FO folks than we did.
Not so coincidentally around the time the Rat started milking his being the Olympic coach.Dook had few NBA stars in 2013, and a lot more flameouts. They had Boozer and Irving. But also McRoberts, Singler, Shelden Williams, etc.
In 2013, Danny Green was almost finals MVP. Hans was a solid rotation player for a good team. Lawson was close to an all-star. Vince was still around. Sheed I think I had retired, but only recently. Same with 'Tawn. The UNC portfolio in the pros > Duke portfolio. I guess Battier was still around, as a role player of sorts.
From 1982 to 2005, I think, there was a UNC player involved in the NBA finals as player or coach every single season but two, IIRC. I did that calculation at some point. And in many years, multiples. That was still in active memory, especially given Danny Green's visibility.
It's changed considerably since then.
