What kind of master's degree does Shaq have?

Search: shaquille o'neal

Why: Last night on Jimmy Fallon (?), he was talking about his show "Shaq Vs" because Season 2 starts tonight. He said something like, "I have a bachelor's degree and I have a master's," and I was like, "Whaaah?"

Answer: Business! from the University of Phoenix. He studied business at LSU from 1989-92, but left early to play for the NBA.

However, he promised his mother he would eventually return to his studies and complete his bachelor's degree. He fulfilled that promise in 2000, earning his bachelor of arts in general studies. Coach Phil Jackson let O'Neal miss a home game so he could attend graduation. At the ceremony, he told the crowd "now I can go and get a real job."

Then, in 2005, O'Neal earned an MBA through the University of Phoenix online.

It's just something to have on my resume for when I go back into reality. Someday I might have to put down a basketball and have a regular 9-to-5 like everybody else.

Cute.
