Alvarez mostly approves NCAA reforms, but has some concerns

Barry Alvarez is on board with most of the major reforms approved Thursday by the NCAA, but the University of Wisconsin athletic director has his objections and concerns. Alvarez endorsed proposals to increase the Academic Progress Rate ? schools that fail to reach the new benchmark will be ineligible for postseason play, including football ? and to bump academic eligibility requirements for incoming freshmen from 2.0 to 2.3.
