 Rick Majerus was born on February 17, 1948 in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Majerus is something of a fan favorite and cult figure around college basketball, known for being overweight and his quirky, jovial personality. He has had several heart attacks, and suffers from diabetes. After years of rumors that Rick was considered by college programs in need of a coach, he accepted a job as the head coach at Saint Louis University in April 2007.
