Perhaps you've heard about LSU's Glen Davis ("Big Baby"). He's often compared to Shaq, and he'll probably be drafted in the second round at the NBA draft in a few weeks.
He's 6'8", about 300 pounds. The problem is that, unlike Shaq, he's not a seven footer. That's not an ideal basketball size. He's too short to play center in the NBA, and perhaps not quick enough for a power forward spot.
Why isn't he playing football? Why not give him an invite? Hey, we're trying former Houston basketball player Rodney Hannah at tight end.
Grizz, I got your big fullback right here!

Notes: Nicknamed "Big Baby" ... Was a dominant football player in high school, (played defensive lineman and halfback!) and could easily have had a career in the NFL if he chose to ...
