BLUEDOVE3 Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 The good news is that you identify those 'one or two" students who are lacking in their academic work. You make sure they get up and attend classes and monitor their academic progress with with "their" advisors. Some schools have their own personal academic advisors who travel with the teams and students have their own personal laptops to complete assignments in hotel, airplane, or whatever. Especially if its only one or two students. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the APR rankings released yesterday, it seems to be more than 1 or 2 athletes. http://web1.ncaa.org/maps/aprRelease.jsp Remember, an APR of 925 is equal to a 50% graduation rate. Lamar was 915. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshlyHasBeen Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 What you must remember is if a player leaves the program or doesn't finish school it counts against the program. It's not necessarily the guys on the roster making horrible grades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(1) Coaches ask players to leave (transfer) from their programs every year to make room for new players UNLV had several players to leave their program just this year. But anyway, I look at it as a wake up call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Knight Regime doesn't get off that easy. ;) Big girl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So programs lose kids every year. The good thing is that Lamar will have to implement better recruitment of student athletes and MOST importantly , put academic programming in place to help these kids.

BLUEDOVE3 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 When are they off of it again? Exactly!! I started to put this question out there. I'm sure the school will have to meet the academic requirements first before being released from probation. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
