I didn 't have to think about it too hard, it took me about a week. Coach Chris Clark is one of the nicest guys I've ever met. When we went up there for the tour and I had to play in front of him, he answered any questions I had. He gave me his number in case I had other questions. We keep in toucp everyday."
