Best Wishes to B.K.U.

It's being reported that Minnesota Vikings defensive end Kenechi Udeze has a serious illness (thought to be leukemia). Although neither his agent nor his team have confirmed the reports, his coach did issue a statement of "thoughts and prayers" and we're doing the same here.

I got to know Kenechi or "B.K.U." a bit at USC through basketball and mutual friends and like a lot of the people at USC, he's an incredibly sincere and nice guy. I remember when he came to USC as a freshman and we called him the "Hulk" because he had a little kid's face but had the exact body of the Marvel superhero.

I'm proud to be a part of B.K.U.'s "Trojan Family," and will keep him in positive thoughts and wishes. Fight On.

Respect to Udeze. I hope he gets right...but:

"and like a lot of the people at USC, he's an incredibly sincere and nice guy"

I used to ball with a guy who threw a touchdown in the damn Pro Bowl, Kev, so trust me, I jock my alma mater too.

But if the Trojans' team manager gets hired as a gofer by an NFL squad, you'd be shouting it from the rooftops. LOL
