Yes, he just graduated. He entered the portal as a grad transfer.

didn't he miss a year, or part of it because of being academically ineligible?

And?

I'm sure he's not the first, or last, LSU student that will have issues...and then go on to graduate and then to grad school.

Maybe instead of laughing at him, we should be happy for him that he turned it around, graduated, and is now in grad school.

I'm just glad the guy got a degree. Obviously he had some growing up to do, but he's still at LSU, and has been accepted into a masters program.

Although, I can't imagine it was in biochem. But hey, maybe this will kick start his career.

most legit grad schools will scrutinize your transcripts all the way back to at least hs, some take it further, he's not getting into a legit grad school/curriculum (except maybe a Grambling or Southern,) with that on his record, unless of course, he is of some value to the football team

So, he's wearing a jersey number to match his age.

I mean, if you just want to continue to beat the guy up because he had some issues in the past, then you go right ahead...hope it makes you feel better.

Apparently so.

For my part, I love a great comeback story. As an old boss told us "my greatest moments in aviation history were recovering from my worst."

All aboard the #44 John Emery pain train.
