NCAA making changes
in player eligibility rules
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) The NCAA wants to change eligibility
requirements lor incoming student-athletes by lowering the emphasis
on standardized tests and increasing the weight of classroom work.
In a sweeping package of academic reforms approved Tuesday, the
Management Council increased the number of core courses high school
students must take and extended the “sliding scale" that helps deter
mine freshmen eligibility.
Student-athletes must now score at least 820 on the SATs, but
the changes would allow freshmen to become eligible with lower
test scores — with a higher corresponding GPA. The minimum
LiPA ot _.() m core courses remains unchanged, although high
school students would have to complete 14 core courses, one more
than the current rule.
II approved by the NCAA’s Board of Directors on Oct. 31, the
changes would take effect next year.
We now have the best research data ever available to us, in terms
ot predicting success, during the first two years of college," said Percy
Bates, the council s chairman. “That research clearly indicates that the
number of core courses, and the performance in those courses, are the
best predictor of college success.”
The change has been discussed since January, when the NCAA
released data showing that students with higher CPAs fare better in col
lege than those with higher test scores.
As part of the reform package, the council approved changes that
would increase the workload to be eligible while attending college.
College students would have to accrue 24 semester hours before
entering their second academic year, while maintaining a minimum
load ot 18 hours each academic year and six hours per term.
Progress toward college graduation would have to come at a quick
er pace. Current rules require four-year students to complete 25 percent
of their credits each year, but the proposal would increase that to 40
percent after one year, 60 percent after the second year and 80 percent
after the third year.
Bates said the new requirements will help the NCAA reach its goal
of achieving higher graduation rates for student-athletes, rather Than
just allowing athletes to maintain their eligibility.
"For the first time ever, we are addressing in one legislative pack
age the entire academic experience of student-athletes, from high
school performance through college graduation," Bates said.
The council also gave initial approval to new rules for football
practices.
The proposals would require a strength or conditioning coach
certified in CPR to attend voluntary weight training or summer
conditioning drills.
Those changes Came after the deaths of Eraste Autin, an incoming
freshman at Florida, and Rashidi Wheeler, a Northwestern player, who
died during voluntary workouts in the summer of 2001.
