Crodell Broadus, the son of rapper Snoop Dogg, has reportedly quit the UCLA football team.
Broadus, who chose UCLA earlier this year after narrowing his decision down to the Bruins and rival USC, had been admitted to UCLA and was already attending the school’s summer session. Tracy Pierson of Scout.com reports that Broadus is expected to remain enrolled at UCLA. He has apparently decided he just doesn’t want to play football.
Sources reportedly told Scout.com that Snoop has always pushed his son to play football, so Cordell quitting the team may be a result of him “wanting to do his own thing.” Broadus was a four-star wide receiver recruit coming into UCLA.
Surprisingly, the other famous rapper whose son plays for UCLA is still on the team in the wake of the incident that took place earlier this summer.
Snoop, who has always been a huge USC supporter, said back in February that he was throwing out all of his USC underwear now that his son was set to play for Jim Mora and the Bruins. I wonder how he feels about that decision now.
UPDATE: Broadus is giving up football to pursue a career in film, as Jim Mora revealed in this statement.
