    Sorry if this has been brought up but, how in the world does an student athelete have 49 pairs of shoes? I think i have about 4 or 5 pairs of shoes at the most. Not saying there needs to be a limit but 49 seems like quite a bit. Also, I don't see how they can run DNA on 49 pairs of shoes before next saturday. :confused:

    kind of makes you wonder how a student athlete can afford 49 pairs of shoes. Hopefully that falls into items that the school is allowed to furnish an athlete with, hell I don't know. Wonder what his off campus apartment looked like.

    He probably got all of them from local thrift stores. I doubt they were brand new Jordans or anything.

    it costs about the same as getting a couple of cases of beer a month.

    Some people collect shoes. Some collect memorabilia. Some collect DVDs. Some buy drugs. Some buy bottles of liquor, etc.


    To each his own.

    Every black friend I have ever had has had at least 30 pairs of shoes. Some of them could afford em some couldn't. It is a cultural thing.
