I will tell you that they do give offers before even looking at a transcript....you can draw your own conclusions.

After his injury shortened NFL career he returned to school to persue his degree.
How exactly does he deserve to be the academic whipping boy?

Well, when I got my college degree, I had to take 2 phys ed courses. I took softball and billiards, which would generally be classified in the same group as golf. Mock it if you want, but it was a requirement for me.
The AIDS awareness course is something that should be a requirement at every college (not to mention high school) in America, in my opinion.
The music course could probably be used to fulfill a cultural diversity requirment, or would be an early requirement toward some sort of music degree.
Are these classes the most mentally taxing in the course catalog? No, definitely not.
Are they all legitimate college courses, all of which presumably require attendance and a certain amount of out of classroom work? Yes.
The important thing is that Kat returned to school and from what someone else said, he has received his degree. He should be commended for doing that, and not ridiculed for something that happened 10 years ago.

im just saying when youre a lb in the spotlight and you say youre eligibility rides on those classes, it doesnt make you look too smart.. i realize some stuff like that is needed, but if youre a high profile person, id keep it under wraps,,, letting that out only adds fuel to the fire that college athletes dont do [censored] in school
