Marshall Henderson, everyone’s favorite crap-talking college basketball player, decided to have some fun at Tennessee’s expense on Wednesday
The Ole Miss guard took note of Tennessee football’s poor Academic Progress Rate score and tweeted the following jab at the Vols:
O c’mon tennessee football team …. its not that hard!!!

APR scores were released on Tuesday and, at 924, the Vols were the lowest in the SEC. If they don’t improve the score, they could face sanctions.
But, as Henderson says, it’s not that hard!
“Academics are at the forefront of the priorities within our football team, and we are excited with the results in the classroom from the spring semester,” new Tennessee coach Butch Jones said Tuesday. “We are moving forward with a great plan and structure that alleviates past academic concerns, and we are confident of avoiding any APR issues. Everything is in place to provide the best possible environment for achieving academic success for our student-athletes as we continue to move forward.”
Somewhat surprisingly, Alabama actually led the SEC with a 978 APR, which was higher than Vanderbilt’s 973. Not only does Nick Saban have his program dominating on the field, they are also doing well in the classroom, too.
But seriously, pick it up, Tennessee. It really isn’t that hard.
