I agree with Forrest. A degree means close to nothing in my experience.
Work experience is important but the property mentality and passion for the
work is key.

If you've got someone in mind, with or without a degree, then send him over.

Just a random observation:
The Degree requirement may eliminate some of your best candidates.
Some of the best IT/system admin people I've ever interacted with
don't have a degree. Most of the tech job listings anymore don't
even include this line, or if they feel the need to include it, they
add something like " Relevant work experience may substitute for
required education."
The only place one sees this anymore is for jobs in traditionally
degree-heavy industries like aerospace, and even then they usually
include an 'x years of work experience can be substituted for the
degree requirement'.
