UConn will not play in 2013 NCAA Tournament
#1
It's now official, UConn lost its final appeal today, ending any chance of UConn playing in the 2013 NCAA tournament.

ESPN: UConn loses final appeal

Under the NCAA's new rules, a school must have a two-year average score of 930 or a four-year average of 900 on the NCAA's annual APR, which measures the academic performance of student-athletes.

Connecticut men's basketball scored 826 on the APR for 2009-10. School officials have said it will come in at just above 975 for 2010-11. The scores are expected to be higher in 2011-12.

UConn is the first high-profile school to receive the harshest penalty of a postseason ban due to a poor academic performance. The Huskies will also be banned from the Big East Conference tournament.
