+===== Marquette Career =====
+He transferred to Marquette from Saddleback Community College.
+Green averaged 8.7 points per game during his junior year and 7.9 points per game as a senior.
 While his career at Marquette never lived up to expectations, Green was already famous before he came to MU.
 Nicknamed "The Grasshopper" because of his amazing leaping ability, Green was a New York City playground legend before he even entered high school.
-After his tryout with the Bucks didn't work out Green fell in with wrong crowd, and began a long battle with cocaine addiction.  He successfully beat that addiction in the earl 1990s, and came back to MU to help coach young kids at basketball camps for both Kevin O'Neill and Mike Deane.  Even then he would still go back to New York for playground tournaments and was able to hang with college and NBA stars.
