If Brains and Wins have anything to do with March Madness, the Blue Devils take the tournament for the second year in a row. We tallied the basketball player grad rates and win rates over the last 6 years and came up with a Student Athlete Score for each school. The winner? Duke University. The two highest scoring schools in the tournament were Duke and Kansas. Both have solid teams that have won a lot of games over the past 6 years, but what really pushed both to the forefront is that they have graduated 100% of their players. Check out how your alma mata ranks in this Student Athlete Championship Infographic created by DegreeSearch.

Duke did itself no favors when it lost in the first round of the ACC Tournament. The NCAA Selection Committee didn’t do the Blue Devils any favors either.
Despite having the best resume as considered by most experts and despite an 18-1 record with Ryan Kelly in the lineup, none of that was enough to erase Duke’s lack luster effort in their conference tournament, while Kansas...
