I wonder if the study took into account the number of student-athletes that leave school early to play in the NBA? I know that the NCAA does.
For example, UK's 2008 Senior class will have a 50% graduation rate. However, two members of this class left college early to play in the NBA. Of the remaining two student-athletes, both will graduate.
