LOS ANGELES — Cordell Broadus has pulled a double move on his famous rapper father Snoop Dogg.
Broadus, a wide receiver from Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, signed with UCLA instead of his father’s favourite team. Snoop Dogg had hoped his son would play for Southern California, but was still thrilled for him.
