[QUOTE="Lavoisier, post: 425402, member: 831"] APR has problems because it encourages schools to keep kids eligible instead of challenging them. If you reward teams for not flunking their athletes out, then schools aren't going to flunk kids out if they can help it. Clemson puts kids into PRTM major (parks and tourism aka "Party Right Through May"). APR works if the football/basketball team doesn't have influence over the academic side of things, but we've seen how far a school like UNC will go to have athletes stay afloat academically. [/QUOTE]
