Favorite Sports Memory: Too many to name. Everyone enjoys winning, but I especially enjoy seeing our athletic teams mature, and develop into disciplined young men/women.

Fav team: Don’t really have one. I enjoy coaching philosophies. Coach K @ Duke, Coach Saban @ Alabama, Coach Pop of Spurs, as examples.

Fav part coaching: I enjoy the challenges of sports medicine. Returning an athlete to competition post injury; the process of ‘healing’ the injured athlete. “Healing is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature” (WH Auden)
