In an unusual -- and still developing story -- WRAL is reporting that three North Carolina Football players were sexually assaulted this past weekend in a Chapel Hill apartment complex. The players met the accused (three women and one man) in a local bar and then proceeded back to the apartment. Police were later called to the scene and found the players tied and bound, two in their underwear and the other still clothed.
The players names are not being released and the North Carolina Athletic Department is not saying anything beyond, "We're aware of the situation but we don't have enough information yet."
The accused have been arrested and are claiming the encounter was consensual.
For Butch Davis, who saw one of his players murdered while at Miami, this most be a scary reminder to how vulnerable these young athletes are.

Wacky old Chapel Hill. Always a nice place to go out, meet some people, and go home and get tired up and whipped.

Three strong football players being taken advantage of by three girls and one guy must be a new form of fantasy football. Unfortunately, this was not in vogue when I attended the university
