Graduation rates in basketball and football

I hope this has not been posted before. Two articles on graduation rates in football and basketball in USA Today, acknowledges that the media(TV)showcase the BCS, putting the pressure on those programs to succeed on the field or court. Graduation, or lack thereof.

Are you saying 15% graduation rate is not good? I understand a certain amount of player will go pro and not graduate, but that's a very small amount. What's the graduation rate of the general student population? 50% to 60%? What a waste of scholarships.
