South Bend Tribune: Notre Dame No. 1

There must be some error, because I keep hearing recruits say that coaches from the big schools talk about how they are the best at graduating their student athletes. Perhaps they left Florida (the Harvard of the South) off the list so it didn't make other schools look so bad.

These numbers are actually from 1998-2001. However, the trend has continued, so he is still doing his job.
