Matt Barkley took ballroom dancing his senior year and that was it. Wasn't an issue then. As long he's eligible, I don't care what he takes.

You just described over 50% of college students.

This is not uncommon. I had several professors that didn't give a shite about attendance as long as you showed up on test days

I had a class next to Shaq, the summer after he had finished his first NBA season, when he came back to summer school.

I saw him pretty much every day then.

Surely if he was committed enough to do that, he was going more than once when he was a regular student. Which is what I've heard he pretty much did as well.

Guilbeau is still a bitter little bitch, though.

What's weird about this is that during my last semester at LSU I tried to take an online class and they said it wouldn't count until the next semester. Pretty sure this means he won't be able to officially graduate until the spring.

I'll never understand why he seems to go out of his way to be such a prick.

He really does seem gleeful when anything bad happens and turns over rocks to point out perceived faults with our athletes.

I'm thinking that his high school squeeze was fricked by an athlete.

There's really no other explanation.

If I ever see him in person again, this is what I will ask him.

I had several classes with him and the only time he ever missed class was when the team was playing on the road. Your friend is lying to you.

Just 1 class during your final season. For college athletes, this is the way to go!

a lot of athletes do this. Matt Leinart took only ballroom dancing his last year.

exactly. did this in several classes throughout college. when teachers are basically reading from the book in their lectures and don't have an attendance policy, you can not go to class and do just fine.
