TCU in Jeopardy of APR Sanctions

they have scored a 910 and 909 in last 2 years. They need EITHER a 4 year mark of 930 OR a 940 over last 2 years. TCU's big problem is that a great 997 score is rolling off the 4 year average next year. The APR standards are going up in a 3 year stair step up manner. In the following year teams have to meet both the 2 year average and 4 year average to be eligible for a bowl so they are in a bit of a pickle for the next 2 years

A friend sent me this APR stuff 2 days ago. I was gonna make a thread about it but my last thread was deleted so I don't feel like participating much.
Anyway............

They will mysteriously just make it I would predict. Brett shipp can go ahead and get started on poking around this one.

I doubt he does, it's probably to far for him to travel.

Brett Shipp only investigates DISD. Even in the Frazier case the facts stopped once he brought SMU into the story

it really does not look all that critical

( 959 + 909 + 910 ) / 3 = 926 so they only need 12 points over 930 to get to a 930 average so that would be a 942

that will get it done for one year

( 909 + 910 + 942 ) / 3 would equal 920.333

so they would need 957 to equal 929.5 (it gets rounded up according to this)

http://espn.go.com/college-football/sto ... m-standard

and while 957 will be harder to do teams can also get a point per player they invite back that graduates that has left in the past without a degree

and I would imagine there is still plenty of weed in Fort Worth to get several players back :lol: :mrgreen:

I would imagine TCU is contacting some former players as we speak that had decent grades and left without a degree and were only a few hours short and they are asking them back left and right or they are setting up online classes for them and they will score 5-6 points that way alone

the reality is as well that anything they score over a 942 this year makes that goal for the year after even less daunting and I would imagine they will pull a 960+ this year and they will be in good shape for the next year as well then

the years with the 909 and 910 were pretty extreme circumstances surrounded by some pretty decent results

It would be interesting to see if Brett Shipp picks up the TCU story. It will all depend on the orders he gets from Austin.
