Why anyone would make fun of someone trying to better themselves is beyond me. Very impressive that he went back and finished, no matter the degree.

Good for him. It is great when players graduation before they leave, but when they leave early it is nice to see them come back and finish up.

Hope he saved his NFL money.

Yea tell me about it. I know Carnell personally and can say he is a very good person and was smart with his NFL money. He's doing things right and wanted to get his degree finally. What's so wrong with that?

The jokes are about this, which you may have forgotten

But seriously, good for Cadillac and any other athlete that comes back and finishes a degree. As a PE major, more years ago than I want to remember, I showed up to umpire an intramural softball game, as was one of the degree requirements (officiate X number of games in 2 different sports). It wasn't even a class, and there wasn't a grade. I got a kick out of it when my partner who worked the bases pulled up next to the field in a crimson Cadillac with New York plates. Always thought it was pretty cool that after having gotten his big contract and gotten paid...not only did he come back and finish his degree, but the university didn't waive what many might have thought to be a petty requirement for a star player.

Anyone want to take a guess who it was?

Those who are making a joke about this are not college educated...so whatever.
