As of this season, Maryland is graduating a full TEN PERCENT of its players! A truly momentous accomplishment for Gary, this figure represents, quite literally, an incalcuable percentage improvement over his rate from a few years back. Bravo, Gary. Bravo indeed.

Very sad considering only 1 of them has a chance to go to the NBA and the rest need and education for their future after basketball.

Another thing I found interesting is tournament teams that have no white or no African American players on their team.

No white players: Alabama St, Louisiana St, Louisville, Memphis, Temple, and Villanova.

No African American players: Utah.

We're at 89% for b-ball players. 97% for student athletes overall. Not shabby.

Yet again, the ACC proves its vast superiority. Congrats also to Florida State and Wake Forest for their 100% graduation rates.
