What combination of accumulated points divided by available semesters results in a score of 930? Basketball doesn't seem like, with a max of 13 scholarship players, that it could produce a score of 930.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

What is your obsession with APR? - Mo Texan MU - 5/10 16:32:57

I find it very interesting, somewhat shady, and certainly - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:41:28

If you start with 1000 being a perfect score - Mormad MU - 5/10 15:58:25

Well I agree with that math, but 44.64 isn't a possible - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 15:59:58

Correct, which probably means that the number isn't 48 - Mormad MU - 5/10 16:01:11

Or rounding... - Mormad MU - 5/10 16:03:58

But then it would have been 931 or 929, etc. (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:14:57

No, depends on how you round(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 5/10 16:35:14

Ok, what combination? You can extend it pretty far out and - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:02:46

40/43 gets you to .930232 - Mormad MU - 5/10 16:10:56

That is what I thought as well - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:14:43

I would guess that Payne was exempted - Mormad MU - 5/10 16:18:41

Clark only counted for one semester, I believe. - zodiac6 JC - 5/10 17:00:15

It all seems plausible except that Barnett part - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 17:04:06

The only other explanation is that transfers don't count - zodiac6 JC - 5/10 21:09:06

Perhaps graduating seniors don't get retention point (nm) - haeffb MU - 5/11 06:23:29

You've already stated that APR doesn't measure - Mizzmi27 MU - 5/10 17:09:37

Yes (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 17:15:57

That's dumb. - Mizzmi27 MU - 5/10 17:30:31

Beidshied is part of the reason for the 851 score - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:21:36

Yeah, it's a very strange calculation because - Mormad MU - 5/10 16:23:59

From the depiction I posted in the initial post I got from - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:26:47

I agree, but I've looked over that site - Mormad MU - 5/10 16:44:06

Which is why I land here - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:58:18

On that, we agree(nm) - Mormad MU - 5/10 17:00:32

Pie R Squared(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 5/10 16:12:30

Pies are round - Mormad MU - 5/10 16:13:21

there's waivers - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/10 15:53:56

I would agree with your last sentance - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 15:57:20

#notmyquestion(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 5/10 15:49:25

Wrong board - glue MU - 5/10 15:47:37

MU basketball today reported an APR score of 930 (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 15:52:52

So by my math - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 5/10 16:00:45

These are some of the same guys who put us on - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 16:01:49

Them, yes, me, no(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 5/10 16:03:54

trying to figure out how you were so wrong again?(nm) - SuperTone MU

- 5/10 15:47:25

Unfortunately I was again correct (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 5/10 15:51:57

Agreed, you were wrong, per usual(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 5/10 16:32:16

you were not.(nm) - SuperTone MU
