The Legacy of Kelvin Sampson - 41% Graduation rate

[daPAWW1]

Quetion to the blog!

I assume one of you fellow bloggers would know the answer to this question: How many years does POB have to attain his degree before it affects BU's graduation rate? I beleive every D-1 program get's a base on balls for a certain amount of time on early opters like Patrick but I do also beleive they need to graduate - from somewhere otherwise it counts against you!

Anyone know the rules?

I believe he has 5 years after he enrolled. Transfers actually negatively affect the school that they left from as well. At least thats what the initial APR rules were going to be when they were unveiling them.(I did a lengthy paper on them, as well as an article.) Though I have not kept up on them as they've been enacted.

Granger's Non-Graduation Hurts BU?

Since Granger transferred and didn't graduate I assume his action hurts BU grad rate?

Right or Wrong?

And how many transgretions do you get before you lose a scholarship?

Yes, it counts against Bradley also

I think the PJStar should have an article ripping into BU on this.

The NCAA uses this rule:

If a student athlete gets his degree within SIX YEARS of initially enrolling,
then he is considered to have completed his educational process at any and all institutions he has been at.
The clock starts when the student enrolls in college or junior college.
So Danny Granger enrolled in Fall of 2001, and has until fall of 2007 to obtain his degree
or else he is considered to have "failed to graduate".
Patrick O'Bryant enrolled in Fall of 2004, so he has until Fall of 2010 before he can affect any statistic at Bradley.

More really bad news for New Mexico.

Indeed the Alb. Journal also cites that they are slated to lose TWO scholarships in 2008.
that would be a big blow.
