Private school... he has money. I'm sure they just cashed his tuition checks.
Maybe they required him to prove he was on track to graduate. At least he has
a good head on his shoulders.

very nice, but how did Miami admit him to MBA program without a bachelor's
degree?

Dunlap used NFL stage to celebrate UF graduation
Former Walter Payton Men of the Year Carlos Dunlap announces that the
Cincinnati Bengals selected Utah State's Nick Vigil as the 87th pick in the
third round of the NFL draft last Friday in Chicago. Dunlap missed his
graduation from Florida to take part in the draft, so he wore a cap and gownAP

Former Florida defensive end Carlos Dunlap came up with a unique and certainly
memorable way to celebrate earning his college degree. He did it with a Gator
chomp, a “Go Gators” cheer and a flip of the cap — on live national
television.The Cincinnati Bengals’ standout defensive end, who has been
attending classes at UF in the offseason the past several years, finished his
bachelor’s degree in family, youth and community sciences last week and
originally planned to attend his graduation ceremony last Friday night in The
Swamp.But that plan was altered when Dunlap was asked by the Bengals and the
NFL to attend the draft in Chicago to announce Cincinnati’s third-round
selection as the team winner of the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award. He
accepted, and because he could not be at graduation, he brought it with him, in
a sense.He strode onto the stage in a Florida cap and gown to reveal
Cincinnati’s third-round pick. Before announcing Utah State linebacker Nick
Vigil’s name, Dunlap did a Gator chomp, let out “Go Gators” cheer and then
tossed his cap into the air.“It was awesome what they had Carlos do,” Bengals
defensive coordinator Paul Guenther said. “I want to congratulate him on
graduating. It was a great thing to see.”Dunlap’s mother, Diane Ross, is an
elementary school principal in South Carolina and education is a huge deal (and
a priority) in the Dunlap family. When Dunlap and his family made the decision
that he would leave UF after his junior season (2009) to enter the NFL draft,
he vowed to his mother he would return to Gainesville to earn his college
degree.“I promised her I would come back,” Dunlap told the school’s website
(floridagators.com) last week. “That was part of the negotiations.”Dunlap has
done one better than just one college degree. On Thursday, he will have another
when he graduates from the University of Miami with a master’s degree in
business.There has been no rest for Dunlap in the offseason.“It’s not the
regular offseason that most of my peers are having,” he told floridagators.com.
“I’ve been going to school.”A five-star prospect coming out of high school,
Dunlap quickly developed into an elite defensive player for the Gators, earning
All-SEC honors his sophomore and junior seasons and helping UF win the national
championship in 2008.The second-round draft pick has become an elite player
with the Bengals as well. In six seasons, he’s recorded 49 sacks and 12 forced
fumbles.He’s also obviously has been succeeding in the classroom, where he’s
earned his college degree, with another on the way in just a few days.The
Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award recognizes a player for his excellence
on and off the field and his commitment to philanthropy and community
impact.Contact Robbie Andreu at 352-374-5022 or robbie.and...@gvillesun.com.
