Graduation issue......how about these facts: (You can rip on em for other reasons but on Grad rate is bogus)

Fact: 24 players who have completed their eligibility during Bob Huggins coaching tenure have graduated....

Fact: 8 of the last 13 seniors to complete their eligibility under Huggins have earned their degree.

Fact: UC had a graduation rate of 100-percent in the 2002 NCAA Division 1 grad rates.

Fact: During the 2001-02 academic year, UC men’s basketball won the CUSA Sports Academic Award for the league’s best GPA.
