And since high schoolers can't make the direct jump to the NBA anymore, the best players in college will only be IN college for a short time. But of course, I don't think the NBA is flooded with American U players, so that NBA attrition only takes it so far. Way to go Catholic schools, though.

They say nothing about how the GSR is calculated, and it has to be off. American University graduates only 18 percent of its basketball players? Compared to 83 percent for its entire student-athlete population? Anyone who goes to AU knows that 18 percent has to be off. I'm going to send some e-mails and try to get some answers.
