Oh yes...all football and basketball players in the NCAA graduate! LOL!!! That 84% you speak of must not include them. Here's the deal...kids that aspire to play pro hockey...go to the OHL. Kids that aspire to play in the NFL, NBA and MLB go to NCAA schools. How many of those kids actually graduated? And the ones that do...still can't read and write. So when the NCAA becomes the number one feeder system for kids that aspire to play pro hockey...come back with those stats.
