    Two things stand out to me that are not surprising:

    Notre Dame in the top group......and Florida State near the bottom.

    Surprises include Miami "Da U" in one of the higher groups whereas the other UM....Michigan.....doesn't fare as well.

    Surprised to see Ohio State in the top group. Likewise several MAC schools near the bottom. Purdue at the bottom is stunning.

    That's why it's a skewed F%^$ing report....lets see the FB only scores....I trust todays media like a 2 dollar whore who tells me she just had a check up in the last 18 months....

    Ohio State fared much better this go around, due to the basketball program showing amazing stats, which helped the overall score.

    Not sure I get the APR...you read one article that says you're doing ok, then another starts ranking things and it looks like your school is in the dumper.

    Purdue APR Update

    Stu, the only conflict with the two articles is that the Purdue article says that you made the 925 cutoff while the other article ranks them in order. From the basis of being above 925 Purdue is at 930 and according to that article you posted all but one sport was above. The other article sets the bar for good a bit higher.

    I guess both have a point. But if Purdue meets 19/20 above 925 then I sure wouldn't be throwing stones. That is factual while the article MCG posted is most likely factual on the actual numbers all the other rankings are Scouts opinions.
