All I can say is... Goooooooooo Deacs!
When you die, if you go somewhere where they ask you a bunch of questions about your life and what you learned and all, I think a good way to get out of it is just to say, "No habla ingles." ~ Jack Handey

Re: College Football/Basketball Graduation Percentages
As well it should be. This ranking is based off the percentage of student athletes who graduate within 6 years of enrollment, so BYU's low number is a factor of mission service.Italics wrote:BYU's is actually fairly low
Four years + redshirt + mission = 7 years.
Note that our percentage is much higher for basketball where we have had fewer young men going on missions.
The ranking is only going to get worse the more we have going on missions. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Sno is right.
If you adjusted for missions, I believe Bronco has said we'd be top 5. If you further adjusted for honor code casualties, we'd be #1.

Re: College Football/Basketball Graduation Percentages
So do I get to use that as the reason it took me so much longer to graduate? My "redshirt" year(s)?snoscythe wrote:Four years + redshirt + mission = 7 years.
