Message: [QUOTE="moqui, post: 210059, member: 214"] of course, the blame ultimately falls on those three, but JB was also correct about problems with the APR. He is not the only one who sees this - in fact, I heard Bilas critiquing the APR on Cowherd this morning. It's not just the APR, it is the timing of the NBA draft and all the pre-draft workouts. Kids who want to be included in the draft are forced to skip classes at the end of the semester in order to participate. There should be some kind of waiver system for anyone who is in their last semester. If they declare for the draft and attend individual workouts or other camps - and can document it - then the NCAA should waive that semester from APR calculations. To ask a kid to decide between helping out his school or missing out on these workouts for what is in essence an ultra-competitive job application process, is asking too much of them. [/QUOTE]
