I see why Coach Brown is strict on academics and requires a high GPA for walk-ons. Yep. We can go ahead and delete that other thread with folk bitching and moaning about being too strict. LOL

Y'all think this also played a factor in green lighting of letting Washington go?

You let a coach go because his team's APR score is above the benchmark?
I dont understand that logic.

Gotcha. Is the penalty based on the yearly score or the multi-year average?

Coach Brown's efforts won't have maximum impact until 2024-25 but even then that 902 will stay in the average for four(4) years.

LOL folk don't really understand the apr system. it is not based on "grades", it is based on "eligibility". so as long as an athlete remains "academically eligible", then they will not hurt our apr. you do not need to be an "honor student" to remain eligible. "transferring out" hurts our apr as "retention" is a measurement of the apr system. guys leaving our program hurts our apr. if an athlete has a 4.0 gpa, it does not "skew" our apr score. you're either "academically eligible" or not, that's what the apr system measures. to remain eligible you have to have a 2.3 minimum gpa (last i checked). if everybody on the team has a 4.0, they'd have the same apr score as a team where everybody has a 2.3 gpa...

www.ncaa.org/sports/2015/5/19/academic-progress-rate-explained.aspxThe APR is calculated as follows: Each student-athlete receiving athletically related financial aid earns one point for staying in school and one point for being academically eligible. A team’s total points are divided by points possible and then multiplied by 1,000 to equal the team’s Academic Progress Rate. In addition to a team’s current-year APR, its rolling four-year APR is also used to determine accountability. Teams must earn a four-year average APR of 930 to compete in championships.

I tell you what...if we don't get the APR score up this academic year, we will be below the 930 benchmark. So, transfers don't hurt so long as they athlete is in good academic standing, correct??? Because, it seems to me with the implementation of the transfer portal which, no one can physical prevent, it seems that measurable should be removed from the calculation. Just my two cents...

Just my two cents... i don't know why they've suspended the apr system but i would think it could be related to covid and the "transfer portal". i'd have to research it to know for sure. and yes, you're correct that if transfers remain in good academic standing at their new school, it should not hurt our apr. at least that's my understanding...
