    Oh, no, it definitely did that as well

    What was NDSU's team GPA?

    Given the bragging by Texas about their all time GPA record being set with a team GPA of 2.98 I've been curious about other teams GPAs.

    UNI didn't release football team GPA but in the press release they were in the category of "teams over 3.0" but they weren't the highest mens team meaning they were somewhere between 3.0 and 3.3

    2.99 fall, 3.03 spring.
    (NDSU football semester record is 3.06 - set in spring 2017)

    Not everything was released, but this is what was in the paper:

    Fall 2018
    3.65 - women's basketball (record)
    3.60 - softball (record)
    3.32 - average student-athlete GPA
    3.31 - wrestling (record)
    3.17 - average NDSU GPA (undergrad)
    2.99 - football
    2.90 - men's basketball (lowest)

    Spring 2019
    3.78 - women's basketball (highest) (record)
    3.67 - softball (record)
    3.42 - average student-athlete GPA
    3.13 - average NDSU GPA (undergrad)
    3.09 - men's basketball
    3.03 - football


    https://gobison.com/news/2019/1/11/g...-semester.aspx
    https://www.inforum.com/sports/13399...-academic-side

    In the MVFC, NDSU football had the highest APR, the 2nd most President's Council Academic Awards(after YSU), the most Commissioner's Academic Excellence Awards, the most Honor Roll Awards, the most MVFC all-academic team selections, and tied with SDSU for the most national Academic All-American selections. I don't know if NDSU had the highest team GPA; there doesn't seem to be an award for it, and I didn't see a news release from anyone saying they had the highest.

    (only pointed out the other stuff because I found it while looking for the best MVFC GPA and was going to find some way to use it after spending all that time )

    not that I have never contributed to thread drift here and elsewhere ... and in most mtgs I attend at work ..... but how we go from TC replacement to NDSU GPA is bit of stretch even for me ... you might move this to the NCAA FCS APR for MVFC thread I just started, which I initially was going to post here .. then let the silly banter begin in earnest !!!!!

    How? Somebody asked.
    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.


    Opportunity is unattainable for most people because it is disguised as hard work!!

    I wonder what the statistics are on how many posts there are in a thread that isn't about NDSU before 1) there is an NDSU specific post and 2) the thread is completely hijacked to be about a topic that is complimentary to NDSU?

    My apologies if this is question is perceived as unfriendly or chippy.

    all we need to do is get a "word cloud" app, ask ursus to slap it on this forum for a week and see what we get

    Clenz (a MVSU fan) is the one who brought it up.
