I'll believe it when I see it. This is one of the few ways to make apr work. That and scholly reductions etc as penalties. One problem still for us. Harder to graduate at Tech, hurts our apr competitively and we could end up on the short end of this stick.

The money carrot will also lead to more cheating but nothing new there.

Factory schools with their "Parks & Rec majors" will make out like bandits, yet again. There is simply no way to level the playing field.

I bet GT has one of the highest average starting salaries for graduate SA's working in fields other than professional athlete. They should use that data to drive revenue distribution.

Student Athlete.... yeah, right.

The term SA should be replaced with SPAPTBS. (Semi-Pro Athletes Pretending To Be Students)

Remember apr is self determined. Alabama was a top apr school a couple years ago

This will just make the factory coaches force their players into easier majors, will not benefit players, only helps schools that offer easier classes.

Peterson mentioned this tonight at my 50th reunion. This can certainly not hurt Tech
