What will a school do when the NCAA rules a student-athlete ineligible to play in a NCAA sanctioned sport?
The NCAA does not award any championships for FBS.

Do you think the CFP committee is going to make any CFP worthy team ineligible and sit at home, because after the Michigan stuff last year, I don't see that ever happening.

You must have been a GA player. I won't say UGA because y'all don't even qualify as a university.

That is the whole point, Einstein. You are 23 percentage points behind the closet school.

Right now if they had a 60% rule before you can field a team. One team on the graph would be disqualified. ONE TEAM...the GA Dawgs.

These hired guns that jump from team to team for more money don't give a shite about their education, so why should I?

Not college football anymore, it's a poorly run USFL.

Matters not. College football is no longer about college and graduation rates...it's a paid minor league for the NFL. We might as well accept it.

Bill Gates dropped out as did Steve Jobs. They were one and dones. Now I wouldn't take their advice on lots of things just as I wouldn't an athlete but not graduating sure didn't hurt them.

You do realize these are rates of student athletes that enrolled in 2016 right?

It is a well known fact that the NCAA does not report the prior year's graduation rate with these report because they use an 8 year time frame per class, so they are just now releasing the 2016 class (2016-2023)
Look at the graph posted by Jose Smith, in small writing under the title (Latest release of data 2022-23 for the 8 year graduation Cohort of 2016) If an athlete flunks out it is counted against the university. If a student transfers it does not.
So these are kids that were recruited by Mark Richt.

Seriously, what kind of a stupid jackass spends 7 years in college, and gets no degree? Then washes out of the league in less than a full season.

The NCAA allows a student to go back to school to get a degree and it counts as "graduated". So if a student is in school for 3 years, leaves for the NFL but gets a degree within the 8 year time frame, it counts toward that year's cohort.

That sawed-off drunk isn't going back to college. He'll be in rehab within a year.
