I could be completely wrong about this and would love to know the true answer if Bama fans know it, but I was told a while ago that Bama has a remedial program that tends to help guys stay academically on track. UGA used to, but I believe sometime after the Jan Kemp affair it was completely done away with at UGA. I have no idea if that was because of the JK thing or because the University finally decided it was F'n ridiculous to run a remedial program at a flagship state university, something I can completely understand. It was sometime in the late 90s, early 2000s I think so it might have been a part of the Adams push to improve the reputation of UGA.

All major universities require their athletes to attend tutoring or study sessions. Most require them to scan their ID card when they enter the academic center and again when they leave. Each school sets a minimum time requirement they must meet each week.
