Football graduation rates

Does anyone know where we can access graduation rates for the football team? I've never seen any actual statistics. I've seen some use concern when visiting this issue and others say he's done great. I know when we got scholarships taken away, I seem to recall there being some comments centered around people transferring out being used in the "did not graduate" percentages.

Do we need to start a thread on just this topic. It is an extremely important one. I'm just uninformed as to whether there's cause for concern or not.

Seems like a good stand-alone topic question ... and so now it is.

I just PM'd msusportsinfo to see if they happen to have any data they can share.

I hope they do.

Here is a link to the NCAA Graduation Rates site. You can find the grad rates for any NCAA school here.

Wow! All student % is 47 and football is 57 and the four class average for all students is 45 % and football is 46%. Man, goes back to how much folks view the student athlete as having to be so much better because their education is being paid for
