Today, Nazr Mohammed and Wilbur Hackett will receive their degrees from the University of Kentucky thanks to the Cawood Ledford Post-Eligibility Program. We’ve already shared quotes from the former Cats about their accomplishments, but there are some great videos and pictures to pass along as well.
In this video by UK, Mohammed, a two-time national champion and 18-year NBA vet, talks about what it means to get his degree 25 years after enrolling at the university. It’s well worth three minutes of your time this morning, if only for the reminder of that freak buzzer-beater at Vandy in 1998.
