Shabazz’s Mom Wanted Long Beach St. in the Mix

Shabazz Muhammad has received attention from every college in America, but his mom was wishing one more school would have shown interest.

Faye Muhammad, a Long Beach State track and basketball star, is perplexed why 49ers head coach Dan Monson hasn’t been recruiting the #1 player in the land.

“I would have liked to see them come in and get involved and see what happened with that,” Faye Muhammad said.

Asked about his recruitment of Muhammad while sitting courtside at a Las Vegas club tournament game Sunday afternoon, Monson smiled like a man who knew he faced an uphill climb. Like Mt. Everest. Monson cannot comment on recruits who have not signed letters of intent.

Told that Monson probably thought her alma mater had no shot at a player of her son’s caliber, Faye Muhammad said, “Maybe. But I would have been a major ally.”

I really can’t blame Long Beach State for not recruiting Muhammad….it would be like the Kansas City Royals trying to take ARod from the Yankees.
