Brandon Todd

"Well out of high school I was recruited by some schools but my size and everything was a big factor so I didn't get much exposure," said Todd. "The best thing for me to do was to go to junior college." This move landed him at Olney Central College in Illinois but only for a year, after which Todd decided to get into fitness by moving to Maryland and working with his uncle who was a personal trainer. While working in the gym, he continued to blaze on the basketball court. He was even recruited by a couple of local collegiate programs. "I got some looks from a school called Salisbury State University, and Howard University actually wanted me to sign," said Todd. "As I was going down to sign with Howard their coaching staff got fired and they went on an 18 game losing streak." Todd decided not to sign with Howard and instead continued to lift weights with his uncle until he was contacted by Geno Ford in 2005. Coach Ford had just been named the new head basketball coach at Muskingum and called Brandon to see if he wanted to come back to southeastern Ohio to play basketball. "I thought about it for a while and I kept telling him no and he kept calling and Coach Kirby kept calling and I kept saying no, I wasn't going to play and I finally talked to my mom and they had been hinting that they wanted to see me play some more," Todd recalled. "Next thing you know, I came back."

Brandon decided to play basketball at Muskingum College in New Concord Ohio. During his time at Muskingum College Brandon transformed his body & his athletic ability to become the best point guard in the Ohio Athletic Conference (O.A.C). It's during this summer that Brandon really developed his training methods and began to engulf himself into fitness. From 2006 until 2008 Brandon was an All-Conference guard,[6] twice earning first team ballots. During his entire career at Muskingum College he led the conference in assists, assist-to-turnover-ratio, and twice in the steals category. The Cambridge native scored 20 or more points on nine occasions in his first season and made his Muskie debut with a 34-point, 11 assist, nine rebound outburst in a game against the University of Redlands.

Gene Ford, father of Geno Ford, a member of Muskingum's Athletic Hall of Fame, coached Brandon for four years at Cambridge High School and the past two seasons as an assistant coach here at Muskingum. While at Cambridge, Ford compiled 400 wins and was inducted to the Ohio High School Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame. "Brandon has grown as an individual tremendously from a high school senior to a college senior," Ford explained. "I mean it's fun to see that his leadership skills have developed."[7]

Brandon Todd selected to first team all AOC.[8] He became the 27th Muskingum player to reach 1,000 points on January 4, 2008.[9] He stated when asked about LeBron James in an article by David H. Katz of Yahoo! Sports, "How much better might the King's game be if he decided to use FlytRight this offseason? "Don't even get me started," Todd jokes. "His vertical would be mid-50s, easy... If LeBron took the challenge and did my program, he'd never have to shoot a jumper again.""[2] Todd has faced LeBron on multiple occasions as high school athletes, and was even first team all-Ohio alongside James two years in a row.
