Why did you choose Mizzou?
I chose Mizzou because I wanted to be in a college town with true die-hard basketball fans and I wanted to bring a basketball National Championship to a school that has never seen one.  

How did you decide on your major?
I love to think about why people do what they do, and sociology teaches me this.

Favorite class and why?
The Family. I learned a lot about the dynamics of the American family.

What game/match/event do you look forward to most and why?
National Basketball Championship. I prepare for that moment everyday. When I get there, I/we will be ready.
 
What do you want to do when you graduate?
Play in the NBA. 

How did you get started in your sport?
Randomly; by just playing outside when I was younger.

Winning the Big 12 Championship in 2009.
