The news is a little better on the academic front for football, but it will take awhile to dig out of the hole they have been in.
Academics: FSU football APR improves, still ranks low nationally
I'm sifting through the numbers and will post more information here:
*** For perspective on APR rates and FSU's 956 for last year, as I said in the story that's a nice improvement from the year before but still pretty low. It ranked 12th of 14 teams in the ACC. Clemson leads the conference at 997. Miami had a 987. Also of note: UF had a 978.
*** Here are the multi-year rates for every FSU program (from best to worst):
1,000 -- Women's cross country, women's golf, women's tennis and women's track
997 -- Softball and soccer
995 -- Volleyball and women's beach volleyball
990 -- Men's and women's swimming and diving
988 -- Men's golf
985 -- Men's basketball
979 -- Women's basketball
978 -- Men's track
972 -- Men's cross country
971 -- Baseball
962 -- Men's tennis
942 -- Football
*** FSU men's basketball continues to shine on and off the court. Here are the multi-year numbers for the ACC basketball programs, from first to worst.
Louisville -- 994
Notre Dame -- 989
FSU -- 985
Va. Tech -- 980
Clemson -- 975
UNC -- 971
Ga. Tech -- 970
Syracuse -- 970
Miami -- 968
Pitt -- 968
Virginia -- 961
Wake -- 959
B.C. -- 958
Duke -- 958
