With this low of an APR we should be winning a lot more games!

Just saying that if this is what OB is bringing in then we should be golden for a CC.

College athletes studies guided toward 'major in eligibility'

Steven Cline left Kansas State University last spring with memories of two years as a starting defensive lineman for a major-college football team. He left with a diploma, credits toward a master's degree and a place on the 2007 Big 12 Conference all-academic team.

He also left with regrets about accomplishing all of this by majoring in social sciences — a program that drew 34% of the football team's juniors and seniors last season, compared with about 4% of all juniors and seniors at Kansas State. Cline says he found not-so-demanding courses that helped him have success in the classroom and on the field but did little for his dream of becoming a veterinarian.

"I realize I just wasted all my efforts in high school and college to get a social science degree," says Cline, who adds he did poorly in biology as a freshman, then chose what an athletics academic adviser told him would be an easier path.

I'm thinking that more of our players should be in social sciences to get our scores up.

I could care less about the APR for the football team. All that happens is we lose scholarships...OB could have 150 scholarships available and we still wouldn't have a decent QB prospect.

We could out-do Nebraska's walk-on program and really piss them off.

Or we could do what all the other top schools on that list do and have the tutors take the classes and tests for the players.

Edit: maybe we just need new tutors that teach and not fornicate with the player.  

Edit: Scratch that, keep the ones that fornicate, but hire others that teach.
