Wow. And at the very bottom of his list:

Ohio State 43 74
LSU 42 70

FYI...data used is from:

SOURCE: 2007 National Collegiate Athletic Association Graduation Rates Report, covering scholarship athletes who entered school in 1997-98, 1998-99, 1999-00 and 2000-01.

The APR numbers show a much more accurate picture of current athletes progressing in achieving or on tract to receive their degrees.
