The son of rapper Snoop Dogg has grown to be a four-star receiver in the Class of 2015 with scholarship offers from USC, Notre Dame, LSU,Arizona State, UCLA and others.
So how did Snoop get his son into the game? By bribing him with a lot of cash when he was 6 years old.
“My father got me into football at a young age,” Broadus said in aninterview with Bleacher Report. “He had to pay me, because I didn’t really wanna play football. I was more interested in acting.
“He sat me down one day and said, ‘You obviously don’t want to play football, so what do I have to do to make you play?’ I was like, ‘Give me some money.’ He said, ‘How much?’ I said $2,000 — he gave it to me in an envelope. The next season it was $1,000, and after that it was free. He always says I’ll have to pay him back when I get to the [NFL].”
In an envelope. That kills me. What dad hands two grand to his 6-year-old son in an envelope? I guess that’s how you roll if you’re Snoop.
Luckily, this isn’t just some famous guy’s son getting attention from programs hoping having an affiliation with a celebrity will help give them cred with other kids. Broadus is a good football player and will be fun to watch in college
