2012 APR Rankings- CFN

[PonyKai]

"It gets easily forgotten, but this is college football. Of course, college football is nothing more than a glorified minor league, but the guys still have to go to class and at least pretend to try.

Welcome to the Academic Progress Reports, better known as the APR, taking a look at the classes from 2006-2007 to 2010-2011. Every Division I sports team calculates its APR each academic year, based on the eligibility, retention and graduation of each scholarship student-athlete. Programs that score below 925 (this is the Mendoza line ... if you can't hit this, you're just not trying) on their four-year rate and can lose up to 10 percent of their scholarships through immediate penalties. Programs that dip below 900 - there weren't any this year - face additional sanctions and can also face historically based penalties for poor academic performance over time.

Below are the rankings for the FBS teams based on their APR and with our scoring for how they graded out. We categorized the teams into ten categories. If a program was in the 90-100% range, it gets a 10 (for our Program Rankings to come out later this summer), while a program that finished in the 1-10% range gets a 1.

10 is obviously amazing, anything 7 or above is fantastic, and 4 or below is miserable. "

Summary of Key Numbers:

Present Minimum Requirement: 925
Eventual Minimum Requirement: 930
Football Multi-year Score (Fall 2007-Spring 2011-year delayed): 941
Basketball Multi-year Score: 943

I got the numbers off the NCAA Database-seem to be a tad different than CFN. We actually did much better in the most recent period-again a year delayed. Football went up about 50+ points to 960 in most recent reporting year and Basketball up 80+ points to 961 from the almost disasterous prior annual reporting period. Another year like the prior reporting year and we'd be hovering around the Minimum required score in both FB and BB so this is good news. Since it is a year delay for example it would not reflect the mass turnover in the Larry Brown regime.
