Due to APR scores falling below the 930 4 year average, McNeese football will be banned from postseason play in 2020. Their scores were 942, 948, 892 and 892. Both of the 892 scores came in the last 2 academic years...meaning without score of 988 next year, they could be facing another ban in 2021.

That news won't help their recruiting. The chance to go to the playoffs is one thng every player wants.

Definitely not good news for the Pokes.

Joke used to be about McNeese (from USL fans), was that all you needed to do to pass a class at McNeese was show up to that class 3 times and at least once sober.

Many of those UL fans told that joke while drinking margaritas at La Fonda’s.There is nothing to that joke as I know and respect professors at both schools.One thing this shows casual fans is changing and hiring coaches isn’t always about winning and losing.In the next few years the NCAA will be distributing hundreds of thousands of dollars a year based on A school’s APR so that takes on even more importance.AD’s and Presidents network often on hiring,firing and a host of other issues most fans don’t consider in depth.
