Similar name, similar game: Friends, training partners Wan'Dale and Rondale set to meet again

Jeff Brohm listened to his former player on the phone, but didn’t fully believe what he was hearing.

The Purdue football coach at the time of this particular call from Chris Vaughn, the former Louisville wide receiver turned-area gym operator and trainer, was neck-deep in recruiting star wide receiver Rondale Moore.
