Is there some metaphysical relation between number of days classes are held (which is independent of the allowable practice days in NCAA Division 1) and the quality of football teams that I am missing? One might speculate that the fewer days that football players had to worry about classes, the more time they could devote to football

I remember when some schools in Florida gave only an extended weekend as a Spring Break.Now they are giving a full week. A couple who just moved here from New Jersey thinks that kids in Fla public schools have too many school days.Whereas in NY and NJ kids get lots of days off from school for virtually all Jewish and other religious observances and even heavy snow days. Maybe this helps explains why Florida football(NCAA) teams are so great.
