Q: How much did you miss the bright lights of Vegas the last couple years?
A: More than you can ever know. It’s been depressing around here. This is the greatest time of the year, but only if you’re there. When you aren’t, it’s miserable. At least for me.
Q: You headed for Jade Corkill at your first Finals in 2008. What stands out about that year 15 years later?
Making the Finals the first time was a dream come true that I actually thought would never come true. Coming from South Carolina and making the NFR is just a shot in the dark. My first NFR will forever be the highlight of my career.
