He got suspended for an entire year and kicked off the team for that time. Not sure what that has to do with anything? The university acted appropriately. Now, if he was granted his appeal and allowed back in school this year to be eligible in Fall....then sure, something to point out.

It's almost like he's trying to bring up Michigan at every possible opportunity.

Texas and Oklahoma routinely were bottom 2 in GSR.

Deloss Dodds hated that, and help change the NCAA from doing the federal GSR(where that measured actually graduating student athletes), to APR which is just something so that athlete students can remain eligible to play a sport for four years, no one cares if they graduate.

The Texas football team gets all the best tutors, the best paper writers. If you have ever talked with a Texas Student Athlete that is not a football player, you can get some amazing insight into the disparity the football players get over all other sports.

That isn’t unique to Texas. FB and male BBall players tend to drag down GPAs.

Football's Academic Progress Rate - APR (2018) = Alabama Tied 14th - let that sink in. It also explains why some of the posters here, based on their posts, seem retarded...

That's surprising. I would have thought Texas & OU would have been near the top in gunshot residue.

That's better than my GPA in college so I can't say anything

To be fair, it’s closer to 2.9 than 2.8.

The comment section on that tweet is pretty good.
