08:27 AM ET 05.20 | Quinton Coples, considered a top draft prospect in 2012, may be courting more of the spotlight than he'd like these days. The NCAA returned to the University of North Carolina campus this week to interview at least one current football player. UNC spokesman Kevin Best confirmed Thursday that the NCAA had returned to campus this week but declined to offer any specifics, saying the visit was part of the "on-going investigation." According to an ESPN.com report citing unnamed sources Thursday, an NCAA investigator was in Chapel Hill to interview Tar Heels defensive lineman Quinton Coples about a post-NFL draft party he attended in Washington, D.C., this month.

Not a UNC homer but it seems like they get a worse deal than schools with players that are doing exactly the same or very similar things.

For whatever reason, they got caught. May be unfair that other schools are flying under the radar, but UNC got busted for it (good thing, too, division opponent :P).
