More help in the trenches. Appears Sonny & Co have made this a priority after the La Tech debacle

His “offer” list is very strong - one of, if not the best offer lists for this class. Congrats Sonny and staff. And welcome Shabazz !

If there is any truth to that list than we have picked up a potential stud.

Way to go Sonny!!

Was curious of the origin of that name.


Shabazz is the name of a black architect whose tribe founded the populations of Africa, according to the doctrine of the Nation of Islam (NoI).

The name was adopted by Malcolm X, initially when he joined the NoI. Born Malcolm Little, by 1949 he was signing letters as "Malachi Shabazz", before taking the name "Malcolm X". After returning from his pilgrimage in Mecca, he finally adopted the title and name El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz, seen as symbolic of his spiritual journey to Orthodox Islam. The surname was borne by his wife Betty Shabazz and his children, and has also been adopted by unrelated persons.

I hope we let him wear Shabazz on his nameplate. That would be cool!

I'm assuming the staff thought higher of him than Kemon Smith. He definitely seems the part. I wish we'd get 1 or 2 more just like him in this class, maybe JUCO.

Love this album - and most albums by bands before they turn "Pop" or conscious.

He's young, so it will change, but he looks like a DE/DT 'tweener - poor man's Marcus Spears?
