Quote:The rising senior gains weight faster than a sportswriter living next to a Krispy Kreme franchise. Last summer, he packed on 19 pounds to his formerly wiry frame. After a difficult junior campaign that saw him lose some of that weight due to injuries and other factors, he has added over 10 pounds since the end of the season. He began the 2003-04 season at 225 pounds, dipped to 215 by March, and says he's now up to 230.

Good. We need a tough, powerful Jawad playing down in the post. I just hope this doesn't slow him down too much....
