APR In The ACC: Basketball Edition

Stay connected for news and updates

All 28 Boston College varsity sports scored high marks in this year's NCAA Academic Progress Report. Not really new news, so let's take a look at ACC's APR picture for men's basketball.

The Boston College basketball team turned in a multi-year APR score of 972, which was good for only the middle-of-the-pack in the ACC. Just like football, Duke again led the conference with a multi-year score of 990. Also ahead of BC was Virginia Tech (985), N.C. State (985) and Miami (975). Both Virginia Tech and Clemson (964) recorded a perfect score of 1000 during the 2009-10 season.

Georgia Tech's multi-year APR score was a whole ten points below the NCAA's 925 cutoff. As a result, the Jackets will be assessed a one-scholarship penalty which has already been served. Tech's 2007-08 score of 840 is severely weighing down the four-year average. New coach Brian Gregory will have some work to do to improve Georgia Tech basketball's academic standing.

Florida State is barely scraping by with a four-year score of 926. This past year's 911 mark is weighing down the four-year average and Leonard Hamilton will have to work with the team to improve academically, lest the Seminoles will also get docked a scholarship or two.

Virginia's four-year average got dragged down by an abysmal 833 APR score in 2009-10. The Cavaliers are still 15 points above the NCAA minimum threshold, but another bad year could put the program on shaky ground.

Also, LOL @ UConn.
