The NCAA is standing in the corner, staring at the wet paint

http://www.ncaa.org/about/what-we-do/fairness-and-integrity

"We are committed to enforcing the rules and creating fair competition for student-athletes across the country. It's the responsibility of our universities, athletic programs, coaches, alumni, student-athletes, and ourselves to be fully accountable at every level as we promote student success both on and off the field.

No one is above the rules. The consequences for breaking them need to be clearly defined and consistently enforced. Our members in Division I revised their enforcement structure in August 2013 to focus on tough but fair penalties.

Our goal is to further strengthen our culture of personal responsibility and individual accountability. Unfortunately, some people will try to break the rules—but in order to ensure a fair system, the rules and the consequences have to apply to everyone. No exceptions."

***********************************************

Graduating from college is as important an achievement as winning on the field. We embrace our role in providing student-athletes the skills for what comes next in life. It’s our commitment – and our responsibility – to give young people opportunities to learn, play and succeed.

We do so in part by setting standards to make sure incoming student-athletes are prepared for college coursework, and by tracking their progress toward a degree once they’re on campus.

We release a report card for each Division I team every year called the Academic Progress Rate (APR). If half or more of the student-athletes aren’t on track to graduate, that team is ineligible to participate in postseason play. That’s how seriously we take our commitment.

We also release the Division I Graduation Success Rate (GSR) and the similar Division II Academic Success Rate (ASR), which shows that student-athletes graduate at higher rates than their peers in the general student body.
