Message: [QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 4770871, member: 212"] I left out an important part of the findings of the study--when the athletic eligibility ended, so did the grad work in most cases. Which brings up the question of whether academics had much, if anything, to do with the decision to transfer for a grad program that is not available at the undergraduate institution. I would also not be surprised if more than a few bailed in the middle of the Spring semester, as those preparing for pro drafts routinely do. I am not discounting the possibility that some of those who began graduate studies might continue and finish those studies at a later date. But I think that would be the exception rather than the rule. [/QUOTE]
