After redshirt season, this 'man-child' is ready to make impact at Wichita State

Back home in Memphis, Rod Brown was already known as a "man-child" before he arrived at Wichita State.

But after a redshirt year spent with strength and conditioning coach Kerry Rosenboom, Brown has packed more than 30 pounds of muscle onto his 6-foot-6 frame and is prepared to make an instant impact this coming season for the Shockers.

"I feel like a new man," said Brown, who now weighs in around 225 pounds. "When I was in Memphis, everyone called me a 'man-child' and said I already had a college body. But Kerry has helped me fill my body out.
