Great year overall for the department with perfect scores for 11 sports.

Football and baseball got pretty respectable scores as well.

Basketball was a total disaster at 959... Closer to ineligibility (930) than perfection. Does not reflect well on the types of guys we're recruiting (as if they graduate from the institution that they transfer to, it doesn't negatively impact our APR).

And such an abysmal score for MBB could, perhaps, be one of the reasons behind the transfer mass exodus.

13 MBB players were on the CUSA Commissioner's Honor Roll announced a few weeks ago. You need a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher for this.

A bit of a clarification.

Basketball had a perfect score this year, per the press release. The 959 score is the multi-year rate, which (per the NCAA website) is a four-year rolling average. Based on that number, "only" 5 sports accomplished that (Women's X-country, soccer, tennis and volleyball, and men's x-country).

Got it-Well that's good that it improved. That said, we must have a few really bad years mixed in if we were at 1000 this year and are still at 959.

But when you recruit academic winners like Quez Letcher Ellis, Maurice Rivers, Najja Hunter, etc, you make your own bed.

And under what HC were most recruited? Not Pera as I suspect the original post was implying.

Mike Rhoades, Ben Braun, and Scott Pera in that order.

Quote:Stephen F. Austin faces a series of penalties, including the vacating of games, for a lack of institutional control violation (Level I) involving the "erroneous certification" of 82 student-athletes in nine sports over the past decade, the NCAA announced Wednesday.

On Tuesday, the NCAA announced an eventual postseason ban for the school's baseball, men's basketball and football programs, all of which were included in Wednesday's release, due to an insufficient Academic Progress Rate.

Men's basketball APR on yearly basis

2018-19 1000
2017-18 932
2016-17 944
2015-16 962
2014-15 980

In the timeframe the MBB rating relative to other NCAA MBB ratings cratered from the 70th-80th percentile to a low of 20th-30th percentile last year, coming up to 30th-40th percentile for this year's 4 year rolling average.

Compared to all the %-ile ranking in all sports programs in the NCAA, the Rice program cratered from 50th-60th percentile, bottoming out last year in the 0-10th percentile, improving to the 10th-20th percentile (again, comparing the 4 year rolling averages).

The drop in the men's program was much worse than the first posts noted.

Literally, the 4 year rolling average was in the bottom 10% of all NCAA programs last year.....
