Sanctions from scandal

Main article: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill football scandal

On March 12, 2012, the university was notified of penalties issued by the NCAA Committee on Infractions for violations discovered in the 2010 season. They will be banned from all postseason play in 2012, which includes any bowls and the ACC Championship Game.^[1] In addition to the postseason ban, UNC will also have to eliminate 5 scholarships per season for the next 3 seasons beginning with the recruiting class of 2013, and will be on probation for the next 3 years.^[2]

Recruiting

National Signing Day was on February 1, 2012 and was the first chance for high school seniors to officially declare which university or college they will be attending for their college career. North Carolina had 23 high school seniors sign a National Letter of Intent to play football with them. Terrance Knox and Shakeel Rashad both graduated from high school early and enrolled at UNC in January 2012.^[3]
