I’m sure in some way it feels nice to finish your degree, but I always think athletes who do this are trying to get some good PR for themselves in the process.

I would like to hear him analyze the graduation ceremony.
“Yep, there goes James, he’s walking across the stage…and he’s got the degree in hand!!”

In this case, I agree. 20 years out is a bit long to wait if you really cared about your degree, especially considering he was only 2 credits shy. However, most cases I feel a lot of the athletes really care about getting the degree…mainly because they don’t alert the press that they’re getting them.

One of the worst color commentators, perhaps ever. Though it’s not exactly a profession full of wizards to begin with.

Do celebrities going back for their degrees actually have to do anything to get said degree?
Eat a dick, Troy.

one of my high school friends that went to j-school at mizzou always brings up that Brad Pitt was something like 3 or 4 credits away from a degree there.

congrats to troy for finishing his degree, but im more shocked to learn that he evidently knows how to use a computer.

Neuhisel asked him to finish to bump up those grad rates for the NCAA
