    Good thing. He does seem to have a good head on his shoulders... (then watch 5-10 years later you'll see some personal Tiger Woods-like dirty vices.... :eek: )

    Its something I've been wanting to do at my advanced age. I'm jealous

    If I was a rich athlete, I wouldn't ever go back to college. What will I do with this diploma?

    Heard he slept on an air mattress in Justin Mason's apartment last summer while attending classes, pretty funny stuff.

    Where does he go? UT? Surprised in this only because it would get annoying being so recognizable in all your classes. Even the professors would treat you differently. I could understand taking classes online though.

    that would defeat the whole purpose of being going back to college. as kd said he loves college and theres something about it that keeps him glued. I think its more the college life than anything else

    He goes to UT in the summer. I know this because my friend claims he has played with him at Gregory Gym like 2 summers ago.

    There is life after basketball you know. Maybe he wants to own a business or something of that nature.
