The transfers in 2003-2004 really hurt the bball team score. I think most of the guys on the team do well enough in class. An Advocate article on LSU's APR: New NCAA academic guidelines could be costly By RANDY ROSETTA [email protected] Advocate sportswriter The NCAA officially publicized the framework of its ongoing academic reform movement Monday, and the initial information released shows several athletic programs at LSU and Southern University have some work to do to avoid losing scholarships in the future. On the positive side, those programs currently on shaky ground have a full year to improve their status. The NCAA calls the new method of evaluating how schools, individual programs and student-athletes fare academically the Academic Progress Rate (APR). It will be formally implemented starting with the 2005-06 academic year, along with the Graduation Success Rate (GSR). Designed as a supplemental method to graduation rates, the APR uses a point system based on eligibility, retention and graduation. The numbers released Monday came from the 2003-04 school year as a preliminary guideline -- a "snapshot" of how programs will be measured in the near future. As the new method becomes implemented, APR rates will be based on four-year totals. For the rest go here: http://www.2theadvocate.com/stories/030105/spo_ncaa001.shtml
what do these numbers mean, I have read a couple of articles on this APR crap and I still don't get it. Anyone care to clarify?
