Will UM Win The 1993 National Basketball Championship?

Submitted by superstringer on

So the UNC academic scandal -- which is outrageous, for an institution of that supposed quality -- goes back to 1993.  http://espn.go.com/college-sports/story/_/id/11752073/north-carolina-tar-heels-academic-fraud-compounded-inaction-lack-oversight-chancellor-says

If they start vacating UNC wins throughout that period... I don't know if it goes back to the 1993 championship game, but... depending on the timing of events, that potentially could vacate their 1993 championship.

If they vacate a championship, does the other team get the championship?  Or is it officially a year with no champion?

And let's compound the problem.  For a long time, we officially weren't in that championship game either, due to C-Web.  But that 20-year ban is over, right?  As of today, were we officially in that game -- is it in the media guide, etc.?  I do think we can hang the banner for being in the Final 4 that year (although I understand we haven't done that yet).  If as of now we officially were in that game, and if UNC now officially was not, can we now get awarded the championship?

And last question.  Would we want that banner anyway?

The NCAA's policies are just plain stupid.  They should make games forfeits instead of vacating them and having no champion at all.  

The only thing that is great about this is that Sparty would be given 2007 and they won't be.
