Brandon Paul looking to shake things up
July 22, 2012 7:20 AM
"It was around 2 o'clock on a Tuesday," Paul said, a touch of longing in his voice. "I made an Italian-type sandwich: salami, ham, provolone cheese, pepperoni. Then I toasted it in the oven and had some chips and a couple cookies and a Sprite.
"That's the last time I ate a regular meal."
Such is the life of a 21-year-old with a broken jaw. Paul's is still wired shut, the result of a collision in practice that sent him into surgery. The 6-foot-4 guard dropped 15 pounds in the first week of smoothies, juice and chicken broth. Now he's around 191 and expects to return to his playing weight of 198-200 by the fall semester.
