The Crimson Tide are now on a list that includes Duke, Northwestern and Stanford.
Saban:
quote:
"I think it's fantastic," Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said. "We pride ourselves on having a great program where we do a good job of personal development with our players. The thing that's most important about what our players do while they're at the University of Alabama is graduate from school and develop a career off the field. To see that we're one of the however many teams in the country that have one of the highest APRs, I think that speaks volumes for the commitment that we have to academics and the standard of excellence to help our players have the best opportunity to graduate."
Emmert:
quote:
"The NCAA's quintessential student-athlete exhibits dedication and commitment both on the playing field and in the classroom," NCAA president Mark Emmert said in a statement. "These teams and programs truly embody the overall values of the NCAA, and have exceeded standards to post fantastic academic scores. We are delighted by such a clear example of our membership's commitment to providing well-rounded experiences to student-athletes."

That's great for those kids. For all of the fluff we agrue about out here, sometimes we forget that these men and women are just college kids.

I think this is spot on. it is really easy to lose perspective of why they're really on the football field; to get a degree

Alabama was one of 13 Bowl Subdivision schools to make the cut.
Very impressive. Congratulations, to the kids. Very impressive.

Critics contend the numbers merely illustrate the growing disparity between the haves, who can afford fancy academic facilities and large support staffs, and the have-nots, who lack the means to give their athletes more help.
Well that's just a crock. For those of us that went to University and graduated, what's required? Go to class and study the book. "Fancy academic facilities"? A library?
