Shaq finished his at LSU during the summer. The others were completed by him or someone else.
I can attest to that. I had an Econ class with Shaq. Of course I didn't know that until the mid term exam, because that's the first time he showed up to class. The 2nd time was for the final. And it's not like I just "missed" him.
Also along those lines. I read an article about Jamie Brandon when he was about to start playing at LSU. Highly recruited, from Chicago, had a very poor upbringing. Raised in the projects by a single mom who was a cop. First time I see him on campus.....steps out of a brand new Nissan 240SX.

Only see Shaq in class for midterms and final. Gee, how did he manage to pass? Wink, wink. What a joke.

Nissan was the “car of choice” for basketball players in the 80’s unless you drove a RR like John Williams. Jose Vargas drove a little Nissan believe it or not.
It was the equivalent to the “charger” at Bama.
But Daddy Dale never cheated.

Same when I had class with Trindon Holliday. Saw the dude once.

You had an odd experience with Shaq. I had a psychology and history class with him and I’m not exaggerating when I say that I don’t remember him ever missing either one. Even if he did, athletes had access to tutoring and even sit in note takers. Not sure about football but Shaq drove a small car where he rolled down the back window to say hi. CJ was similar and didn’t appear to get special treatment.
