The final paragraph gets me
quote:
But no matter how you slice the numbers, as we go into bowl-game season, the study reminds us of the shortcomings of college sports. For 19 of the top 25 football teams — or 76% — their federal graduation rates are lower than those of the overall student population. On 22 of the top 25 college football teams — or 88% — more than 30% of the players fail to graduate. Using the more generous, and probably fair, measure — the GSR — 15 out of the top 25 college football teams (60%) fail to graduate more than 30% of their players.
That’s just not a winning game plan.

Written like someone that knows nothing about college sports. It is 10 times harder for a college athlete to do as well or even graduate. With all of the extra work they have to do it's amazing that any graduate.
