I will write this using short sentences so the Tech basketball team can feel included in the discussion. UGA good. Tech bad.
The academic progress scores were released by the NCAA yesterday. Georgia football and women's basketball APR scores lead the SEC in their respective sports. Tech's men's basketball team scored below the required minimum and lost two scholarships.
BTW -- If a kid leaves school early for the draft or transfers out in good academic standing, his departure doesn't hurt your APR. The argument of "we put people into the NBA" really has nothing to do with why Tech's scores are so poor. They use the negative connotation of UGA as a "football factory" to justify our long term success and their long term failures on the gridiron. In basketball, the shoe is clearly on the other foot.
