Last part of program where Eddie states (erroneously) that, Tony Izzo did follow through and faxed in his transcript and that he did graduate and he not only graduated but he graduated with honors, Magna Cum Laude.  I don't understand why he let this go so long.  This is an official academic document that he faxed over to me. 

But the REAL story emerges over the next days...

COMMENT:  If he really had a Magna Cum Laude degree, why wouldn't he list it on his resume submitted the ANGDA state agency???
