FOOTBALL

Committee looks at postseason, conditioning and diversity issues

The Football Study Oversight Committee discussed a wide range of topics during a May 15 meeting, including postseason bowl game policies, out-of-season conditioning for football student-athletes and a lack of diversity in the coaching ranks.

The meeting was the next to last for the two-year committee, which is scheduled to issue its report to the Division I Board of Directors after its final meeting in August.

The group also reviewed a survey administered to 91 Division I-A and I-AA chief executive officers on the state of college football.

Forms and instructions for a pilot study of an alternate way of compiling Division II graduation rates were mailed in mid-May and are to be returned to the national office by July 1. Data should be available for analysis by October, and a report will be made to the 2003 Convention. For an explanation of how the pilot will work, see the March 4 issue of The NCAA News.
