Marinovich was BJ Penn’s strength and conditioning coach for a while, and I’m pretty sure Penn was working with him when he couldn’t answer the bell against GSP. It’s like fail follows Marinovich wherever he goes.

if he’s older and he’s just ok in college, boom, scouting done

27 Soph/Jr declared early. That’s a big chunk to take off the top. Certainly hurts when you want to see how Muhammad did against the best at his age, then it’s really how he did against the 30-50th best at his age.

this is not the same as latin baseball players being many years older. 19 or 20? no biggie

All the good 20 year olds are in the NBA, not college. This is a bigger deal than you think, simply because the same-age competition isn’t there. He’s never had same-age competition at his level. Everyone elite his age was in college when he was in high school, and the NBA when he was in college. May not be the biggest deal, but it’s real.

I think Mainieri has them fully turned around from the Smoke Laval debacle. Love me some SEC baseball, lots of good teams. I remember when Miss State ruled the roost back in the Will Clark days.

I think the SEC is better top to bottom in baseball than they are in football. Every week is a grind.

I have never seen a team (Wisc) miss so many shots from 10 feet away from the basket. They’ve had a TON of clean looks and can’t buy a bucket – they’re about to ruin my bracket.

Gadzooks, no. LSU.

That’s OK, nobody’s perfect… You guys looked pretty good last weekend at Dudy Noble. That Katz fellow is a ball player.

I’m amazed that Powers Boothe isn’t a major box office success with a name like that.

I would love to see him and Ian McShane paired up in a movie as estranged brothers feuding over business or a woman or something.

The biggest news is the age thing. Shabazz is the same age as many juniors playing this year

And Johnny Manziel.

A few years later, the couple converted to Islam and changed their names. Paige became Faye Muhammad; Holmes tried several handles, including Ronald Muhammad, Ron Shabazz and Rashad Muhammad.

I like Ronald Muhammad. He could dress up in a clown suit and make commercials for McDonald’s in Saudi Arabia.

He picked out a name for his son to be the most marketable and came up with Shabazz Muhammad?

to be fair, he timed his relevancy with the arab spring quite well.
