Marcus Jordan, the son of Michael Jordan, is certainly not making a name for himself! Well, maybe he is, but, maybe, not as he would like!
Recently, Marcus, who attends University of Central Florida (presumably on a full ride) refused to wear the standard issue Adidas sneakers during a game. Rather, he chose to wear his NIke Air Jordan sneakers. His actions are a violation of the agreement that UCF and Adidas have in place...thus, UCF has lost their exclusive 3 million dollar deal! He says that during the recruiting process UCF "promised" he could wear his NIke's...talk about living in the shadow's of your old man.
UCF should yank Jordan's scholarship and/or bench his skinny ass until he laces up some Adidas!
Must be rough...I wonder if his silver spoon get's in the way of his jumper...does he ride the team bus OR demand to fly first class!
You would think Marcus would want to transition into his college career with as little fanfare as possible...create new friends and his own identity...I guess not!
It wouldn't bother me to know that Marcus to a "spill" on campus "tripping on his Air Jordan's"...

Maybe Marcus should transfer across state to FIU, now coached by his father's loathsome former foe Isaih Thomas. Marcus could disrupt that team and keep the old man's legacy of selfishness alive.
