Tracking the Tar Heels, August 21

We’re back for a second installment of Tracking the Tar Heels. If you missed yesterday’s update, you can find it here. Also, be sure to stay tuned for another new blog feature later today.

Now, let’s see what the Tar Heels have been up to:

  • Countless questions still surround the academic scandal at UNC. University Editor Nicole Comparato tries to provide some answers, including whether or not athletics are to blame.
  • Former Tar Heel Julius Peppers, who has denied any academic fraud on his part, donated $250,000 to a UNC scholarship fund that supports African-American students.
  • The UNC football team is moving faster but still not fast enough for coach Larry Fedora.
  • Veterans and freshmen alike were able to bond and work on their skills during the women’s basketball team’s trip to Europe this summer, Senior Writer Kelly Parsons writes.
  • Lastly, here’s an interesting piece on former UNC basketball star Tommy LaGarde, whose attention has turned from basketball to reviving a town.
