Bowl pick a loser at graduation -- 12/19/2003
[...]
Oklahoma's opponent in the national championship game, LSU, has a
mediocre 40 percent graduation average. Southern Cal's opponent in
the second-most important game, Michigan, remains one of the nation's
most embarrassing schools for its gap between the football players and
the student body. Its overall male graduation rate is 81 percent.
Its football grad rate is 46 percent. Its African-American player
grad rate is 36 percent. [ROTFLMAO]
Of the eight schools playing in the four most financially lucrative
games, worth $90 million to their conferences, six have African-
American player graduation rates under 50 percent. Oklahoma and
Ohio State have African-American graduation rates of 28 percent.
Of the 56 teams in all the bowls, only 15 have an African-American
graduation rate of at least 50 percent.
In the interest of positive publicity, those 15 schools are: Kansas
State, USC, Tulsa, Mississippi, Purdue, Georgia, Boston College,
Southern Mississippi, UCLA, Navy, Virginia, Northwestern, Hawaii,
Boise State, and Texas Christian.
Unfortunately, there are also 15 schools with African-American grad
rates of under 35 percent. The lowest were Arkansas (16 percent),
Pittsburgh (23), Miami of Ohio (25), and Tennessee and Fresno State
(26 percent each). The other remainders, besides Oklahoma and Ohio
State, were Bowling Green, Louisville, Texas, Missouri, Minnesota,
Colorado State, Oklahoma State and LSU.

After six tries, their dysgenic brainz get the minimum NCAA SAT scorz
of 700 to qualify, wouldn't have a prayer of university acceptance
on their intellectual merits, then the school callz them studentz.
They get "tutors" to attend classes and do their homework for them,
and they *still* can't graduate.

Around here there's a joke that goes:
Q: Why are there more niggers at OU than OSU?
A: Because the niggers can't spell "OSU"...
