NEW ORLEANS – Earning a degree is first and foremost with the Middle Tennessee football program as evidenced by a 96% graduation rate under Head Coach Rick Stockstill. Therefore, celebrating these accomplishments is a high priority as well.
The Blue Raiders have long been a standard of APR success with a recent multi-year rate of 984.
With the University's graduation set for Saturday and the Blue Raiders' bowl game the same day, a special ceremony for 10 football student-athletes and one team equipment manager was held in the team meeting room this afternoon in New Orleans at the Hilton Riverside Hotel.
