You went to NC State and you're also from Raleigh, so are you adapting to the northeast vibe?

*It's a lot more laid back down south. We're more calm and chill. Not saying it's a bad thing, but it's just different. I'm adjusting to the fast-paced lifestyle. It's a lot louder here too. *

How is your rookie season going so far? Just on a personal note.

*I'm just getting used to it. I'm having a good time. Obviously, the record isn't what we want, we want a few more wins, but we'll get that turned around. Personally, I love it up here. I'm starting to get used to the area. I'm having a good time. *
