"Nobody really WANTS to go to Rutgers"
-LJ Smith, Eagles Rookie Camp.

Should be written on the bottom of his degree.

Sorry, I don't forgive or forget.

Mike McMahon graduated too.

Mike McMahon graduated too.

Good for him! Never badmouthed the program even when under pressure to do so.

Spoiler

Although "Left an NFL pay check in the back of a cab" will be written on his tombstone

Congratulations to both LJ Smith and Mike McMahon for coming back and getting their degrees!!!

At that time it was true for a football player. Times have changed thankfully!

Very good players on very bad teams . Never understood why LJ was always booed during Knights in NFL segment .

Because he was an eagle and giants fans are hands-down the worst fans in the NFL.

I hope little brother Nate ,who had a nice career at Temple, gets a shot for Sundays. Special teams guy , undersized athletic linebacker. The family is Highland park royalty..Proud of them both.

Because when the program could have used a shot in the arm from the first player to be drafted out of it in a very long time he took a swipe at it instead.

Schiano didn't answer his phone calls for a few years after that and only tolerated him after he had the Eagles weekly TV show do a puff piece on our (new at the time) weight room at the Hale Center.

Unfinished business is now finished. Way to go new graduates !

To the L.J and Paul Robeson deniers , thought I'd throw him in, give it a rest.

Great article, and congrats LJ! Goes to show that it's never too late to accomplish goals or keep promises.

Santa disagrees

Ran out of football money?

Very good players on very bad teams . Never understood why LJ was always booed during Knights in NFL segment .

Because he played for the Eagles. Why anyone would boo a guy from your own alma mater who made it to the league is beyond me.

Hope Ray takes note, figures out soon that he won't ever make a living playing football again and that he should come back and earn his degree and start the next chapter in his career.
