It must be nice to be ineligible for a bowl game for something other than our more typical way of not having the record for it.

I wonder if they're really that clueless as to how the APR thing works with the dig at Gilbert .....

“The NCAA added the APR to postseason competition requirements in 2012,” McNeese athletic director Bruce Hemphill said in a release. “Teams lose access to postseason competition the first they earn a multi-year APR below 930.”

The MSU football team posted APR’s of 942, 948, 892, and 892 for an average of 918.5 over the past four years.

....

Hemphill said the school was informed of its postseason ban yesterday, but head coach Sterlin Gilbert has reversed the poor APR trend.

“When Coach Gilbert came on board last December, he immediately began developing an academic performance improvement plan for the football team. That plan is working and the academic performance of the team has improved considerably,” Hemphill stated. “We are making strides toward meeting or exceeding the 930 threshold for 2019-20.”

Gilbert acknowledged that he was aware of possible APR issues when he accepted the McNeese coaching job last year.

You mean, preparing for winning his 6th bowl game since 2013?
