Why Butler:

"I was introduced to Coach Fisher by my former college coach, and was immediately intrigued for the interest. I had no prior connections to Butler, or even the state of Kansas, and once I did my research, it was a no brainer for me to take this opportunity. I am honored and thankful to have the opportunity to follow Coach Fisher's leadership, and learn from a very intelligent and humble coach."
