I'm having a hard time understanding how he was cutting class at Alabama and Houston, but still graduated in two years time at Tennessee-Martin? One would have to think he didn't leave Alabama with 30 hours, and then leave Houston with 30 hours, only to get 60 hours at Tennessee-Martin. Takes 120 to graduate, correct?
It definitely seems like some help was received regardless of where he came from in high school and study habits. A normal student could never have done this unless they overloaded and took Summer classes on top of it. Just like OldPlayer said, to get accepted as a graduate student that fast, some wheels seem greased here. I'm all for a guy figuring it out, it just doesn't seem like he did it himself in this case.
