Unless they've changed their calculations, graduation rates can be deceptive in men's basketball, especially at the higher level programs where players commonly leave early for the NBA or transfer to other universities (my understanding is that both of those situations will adversely affect graduation rates) and there are only about three or four new freshman each year on average. IOW, each defection has a pretty big affect on a schools graduation rate.
