UConn basketball was suspended from the NCAA tournament 2 or 3 years ago because of this.

I've heard for several years LSU Football has had the 2nd highest graduation rate behind only Vandy.

Does it matter if the post season championships aren't run by the NCAA?

My question is how is Alabama so damn high?

They have had numerous underclass defections as well.
Maybe Saban has improved academics...not sure. I thought LSU was one of the higher ones, at least at one time. Guess not.

I should point out that these scores seem to fluctuate wildly from year to year. Check out some historical SEC football rankings, if you'd like. Link is in the OP.
