MARCUS CAMBY GRADUATES!
HAPPY Kentucky Coach John Calipari attended Marcus Camby's graduation from my Alma Mater, very CLASSY! John coached Marcus when he was a Student Athlete at Umass!
VERY PROUD of Marcus for finishing his degree!

So how long are credits good for? I've done the part time Masters thing and 20+ year old credits could not be applied to a degree (at least at WPI)
Prior to the scandal being made public, I was all over Camby and the UMass bandwagon. The Calipari era at UMass was fun while it lasted

Say what you want about Camby (and Cal), but here's a guy who made 80-something mil in his career, certainly didn't need the degree to make a living for his family, yet finished it on-line w/o his family knowing he had even re-enrolled, as he surprised his wife and family with the news that he would be graduating upon completion of his classes. For seeing a promise he made to his mom through, he deserves credit.

Agree ACTP. I think criticism, at least from me, is directed at Coach Cal. Your points about Camby are right on.
