It's not required, so I don't know why he lied to begin with. This lie was started way before Forrest even knew Johnny Jones. He has just kept repeating it. At least two other schools, North Texas and Arkansas State, didn't catch it.

I guess that is one of those lies that will never go away until you get the degree.

So I guess LSU and Jones will get a pass. Just does not look good. I questioned the Johnny Jones hire to begin with and now he has lost one of his top recruiters. Not good.

Kind of wonder if any college schools do background checks on any new coach hirings. Usually academics is not an issue but your character is. Tell a lie often enough you begin to believe it. I'm sure they would know if they were a child molester. Seems they could find out everything else as well. Some things never cease to amaze me. It's not like it would have taken extra effort to see if the guy had a masters degree? WTF? Guess no one really cares.
