Cordell Broadus, Snoop Dogg's Son Lands Football Scholarship From UCLA

Just a sophmore in high school, Cordell's skills on the field already landing him scholarships. He is a defensive back and wide receiver for Diamond Bar (California) High School. According to the NFP (National Football Post) and ESPNLA, Jim Mora Jr. looked over the fact that he only played one year in high school. Cordell is already 6-foot-2, 185 pounds. It is said that he has a body which could develop into that of a legitimate Division I prospect, but who knows whether he'll continue to grow?

Accrding to Cameron Smith for Prep Rally, it is hard to believe that Mora is offering a scholarship to him for a large part of PR benefits. He also states that "Snoop Dogg officially claims to be a USC fan, so snapping up a commitment from his son could give the school requisite street cred and offer a certain buzz to a program which sorely needs just such a jolt of excitement." Diamond Bar's head coach even agrees that Cordell Broadus is a wise move for the Bruins.

The Diamond Bar's Ryan Maine stated to ESPNLA "We're expecting him to really lead us the next three years," after he first tweeted the news. Maine also stated ""Hopefully [our athletes] get bigger, stronger and keep leading this team." Cordell Broadus stated during his interview with ESPNLA "The move was difficult when it first happened, meeting new friends and a new team," Broadus said. "It's been good ever since. The competition level at Long Beach Poly is a whole lot different than it is down here, but I've learned that it's all on me and how hard I work." I am pretty sure for the next three years there will be more news and updates from this rising foootball star.
