The NCAA Academic Progress Rate might is a bit more important in college football than it is for basketball – it can be a tie-breaker when it comes to bowl bids. But it still matters.
What is the APR? It’s a ranking and rating of academic eligibility and staying in school – there’s a bigger breakdown here, if you’re interested.
For basketball teams it’s a little easier than it is for football – fewer players to help get through classes – but on the flip side, if just one player is out, that crushes the overall score.
Have a low enough score – all the Big 12 schools are more than fine – and there can be penalties and even a post-season ban.
