[QUOTE="MidtownJacket, post: 425591, member: 959"] So... The point of this bouns in my humble opinion, is to remind and encourage the coaching staff that academics should be a focus and is a measurable and reviewed metric. Do I think there are better ways to measure academic progress and the job that schools are doing to prepare their SAs for life beyond? Sure. Do I think Coaches / Schools should be focused on ACADEMICS as the primary mission of their existence? Sure, but they don't. I am proud of the fact that GT continues to have a set of SAs who come to GT for the education (and for the most part get their degrees). I know that not every 18 year old kid is thinking about it that way, so having a metric that is tracked enables the schools to have these conversations with the coaches, who have the conversations with the support staff and players. It isn't a perfect system, but I am glad to see GT taking it seriously and have zero problem with the coaching staff getting incentivized. [/QUOTE]
