A record 10 men’s basketball teams, including three-time national champion Connecticut, will be banned from next season’s NCAA Tournament because of sub-par work in the classroom. UConn becomes the first BCS school to face a postseason ban in either of the two most prominent college sports based solely on the annual Academic Progress Rate scores, which were released Wednesday by the NCAA.
