Yes, it is. But 19 out of 215 is still only 8.8%.

But Minnesota is one out of twelve schools in the Big Ten which equals 8.33% compared to 8.84% for Minnesota. This makes Minnesota 6.1% above average.
 

Congratulations to them all for their hard work!
 


Here is the complete breakdown.

Northwestern 31,
Nebraska 27,
Indiana 24,
Purdue 20,
Penn State 19,

Am I missing something? Isn't there some middle ground between being Academic All Conference and having academic issues?

You have to keep in mind that no freshman are allowed to be Academic All Big 10 and no first year JuCo transfers (you need to be in your second year at your academic institution), so that makes like 33 players ineligible for the award.

So that 19 is a pretty decent number.

Kill never said they were having "issues" they were checking in on them to make sure they were going to class. Kill did say a lot of those kids are getting B's just wanna make sure they keep getting B's

Wow, I really did make a glaring mistake. I was just thinking Big TEN, even though I obviously knew there are twelve teams in the conference :confused:
