Out of state admissions for UNC were crazy, so I didn't get in there. My options were Louisville, UGA, Ga Southern, and a couple other smaller schools. Hated UGA enough I that I refused to go there. Only applied because my parents made me.

After my first football season at Southern, the UNC stuff and fandom was gone and GS is the only school I support.

Of all the teams in Georgia, you ended up a UNC fan? Thank god you're a GS fan!

haha. I don't even know how it really happened. But I could have told you back then who all the starters were on football and bball. I was die hard.

I'm a first generation American so, unlike most kids in NC, I was not indoctrinated to pull for one shade of blue over another as I grew up.

My girlfriend and I both graduated from App (she has a master's from there as well) and are huge fans. She recently landed a great job with the Sun Devil football team so we will be attending some of those games and pulling for them this season.
