His favorite place to be in the fall is wherever the Gamecocks are playing; he enjoys making road trips to each SEC campus. He is new to Crossfit and likes to be active and somewhat fit. He has two nephews and a niece. The oldest is a student at Western Carolina University, the middle will be wrestling at North Carolina State University next fall and the youngest is on the dance team in high school.
