Yesterday, the NCAA released the full academic progress rates, and every SEC football program is free from penalties after the academic performances.
Academic Progress Rate (APR) measures retention, eligibility and graduation of D1 student-athletes.
Teams scoring below 930 out of 1,000 can face some penalties, like restrictions on practice or competition, or they can even face scholarship penalties.
Not this year.
Here’s a look, with the newbies Texas A&M and Missouri:
Vanderbilt – 978
Florida – 972
Missouri – 972
Alabama – 970
Georgia – 970
South Carolina – 966
LSU – 964
Miss State – 959
Kentucky – 951
Texas A&M – 946
Auburn – 943
Arkansas – 936
Ole Miss – 933
Tennessee – 931
Last year, the SEC scored an average of 955.4 (does not include TAMU or Mizzou). This year, the average is slightly higher at 956.
