Ram Ramblings: WSSU's 'Showtime' Wells put on quite a show

FAYETTEVILLE,  North Carolina  –  I’ve been watching point guard Marcus Wells so long I still check to make sure he hasn’t used up his eligibility.
 

Wells, a senior who is a four-year starter for Coach Bobby Collins, had such an impressive game on Saturday night in an 86-65 whipping of Fayetteville State it had to be his best game of his career. And, make no mistake about it, it’s been a long career.
 
While Collins relies on a lot of junior college players and Division I transfers to build his program Wells was a freshman four years ago when WSSU endured its last season in a transition to Division I that was ultimately halted. Wells is the lone player from the program from that season who is still around.
 
B-Daht, the Rams' PA announcer, nicknamed Wells "Showtime" earlier in his career and that's because Wells loves to dribble through a crowd or try to make the impossible pass. He did none of that on Saturday night playing a solid game and the results were there.
