Dots: Shelton Switching to Center, UW Football Sees Dip in 2014-15 APR

Assessing a small decline in UW football's APR, taking a look at Coleman Shelton's shift to center, and more.

Washington football experienced a small decline in Academic Progress Rate in 2014-15, but the one-year change only made a small dent in UW's strong four-year score of 971, which still ranks third in the Pac-12. Considering that Petersen reported a team GPA of 3.13 this past year, it seems likely we will see APR climb next season. (It was pointed out in the comments that I previously listed the 14-15 football score at 893. This was incorrect and has been changed. Basketball scored 893, football scored 962)

As Caple reports, all of UW's programs are well clear of NCAA minimums, so nobody needs to worry about NCAA sanctions.

The hyper-athletic Coleman Shelton has shifted to center after previously playing guard and tackle, and Jude put together a solid write-up on the process of learning another new position.

Looks like the Huskies will have to look elsewhere for JUCO help.
