Graduation Rates

I don't know if this was already posted if so sorry. I was listening to Mike & Mike on ESPN radio this morning. They were discussing the study done by UCF on graduation rates and college basketball players. They said that if there was a requirement for each college to graduate 50% of their student athletes to enter the Dance only 16 teams would be eligable. Is Montana among the 16 teams? They also mentioned that the study did not take into account players that left early to the NBA or players that transfered, these players were counted against universities. Knowing that we have not had any players leave early to the NBA we should have a decent graduation rate. Does anyone know the numbers on this? They also mentioned that the NCAA is going to start to penalize teams by taking away scholorships from the universities. Does this only include basketball or does this affect the entire sports scholorship pool? I have a lot questions and maybe you guys have an opinion on this subject.
 
I don't know about the men's team but I know the Lady Griz were one of 3 teams to graduate 100% of their players. (Holy Cross & Vandy) were the others.
 
I wonder if all the Montana players who transfered to the Frontier conference teams count as did not graduate, regardless if they graduated or not?
