UK coach makes a name change

[Babyboomer]

The University of Kentucky athletic department distributed a unique news release yesterday. It said that Wildcats gymnastics coach Hajile "Mo" Muhammad experienced "a personal transformation" yesterday when he married Lynn Mitchell of Cincinnati and took his bride's last name.


"He moves forward in life as Mo Mitchell," the release said, then quoted the newly named coach:

I wonder if he walked down the isle and was given away by his father? ;D

Now where are the ladies to defend this action, men and women are equal after-all, right?, Why not take her name?

Seriously though, sounds to be like he probably converted religion (ala "personal transformation") and therefor took her "Christian" name?
