7 years of championships.....Could each of you list your school's Minimum athletic eligibility coming out of High School

What's Bama's like a 2.0 GPA ditch digger or something?

I know that there's some upcoming changes in 3 more years to something pitifully weak like a 2.3 GPA.

If you are the baddest in the land with sidelines full of talent, why don't you you just demand the best and step it up to a 2.5 GPA at least to play ball?

NCAA admission standards are the same for every school smart guy.

Hmm. Well, first of all, it's not knotch, it's notch.

I think what you meant is not Minimum athletic eligibility, but rather minimum academic requirements to be eligible.

It's not "there's some" but rather "there are some" or "there're some".

And I think you meant "why don't you just demand..." instead of "you you".

Duke fan? I expected better.

And I believe you will find that SEC schools follow NCAA guidelines to the letter on academic requirements.

Go to SI.com.

Article today mentions that ND's football players have, on average, SAT scores that are 400 points below the average student at ND.

Hell of a coincidence.

seriously I was looking for a list before I posted this.

I see ND is like 2.8 GPA, and I assume that's why those schools are always talking about their admissions standards getting in the way of recruiting.

I just could NOT find a list if there are differences within the SEC

Maybe we should. We need to figure something out to make the rest of the country more competitive.

It's going to take just a bit more than 7 National Championships for the South to rise again....elevate your game....Think about it, you all are so braggadocious while wielding advantages of your own low bars.

you win the Boston marathon while riding a bike....and you are proud?

If you actually have one, you're not paying her enough.
