Here's an old article I found. The radio host I mentioned earlier that graduated from Duke has talked about stories on the air too detailing more of this stuff from his time there.
quote:

Earlier this month, the San Jose Mercury News, examining data from 1994-97 (the last four-year period the NCAA used for documentation of grades and test scores), found that freshmen entering Duke on basketball scholarships during that period had an average SAT score of 968. The average SAT score for Duke's freshman class as a whole is generally in the high 1300s

As far as the accountability for cheating, I don't disagree with you, but I mentioned it because these players were allowed to play again.
