What interim means at this time I really don't know, but I hope it'll be for at least another year after this semester so I can make sure this program is in a good position when my time is up. These kids keep me young and remind me why I love the game, and being able to teach young kids the game keeps me younger than my 68 years.

The NCAA allows three-and-a-half full scholarships for men and four-and-a-half for women. Ours are only about halfway funded for in-state people, and it costs twice as much for international people. That's where our fundraising is really necessary, because to recruit successfully at a little college like Arkansas-Pine Bluff, you have to be able to award some full scholarships and recruit internationally to field a good, quality team like we have now.

Any time your peers pick you for that kind of honor, it's hard to find words to describe what it means to you. It's probably the thing I'm most proud of. Since the 60's golf has meant so much to the state of Arkansas. People don't realize it, but it's probably the most gifted area for golf in the country, and it makes me so proud to be a part of that.

The main thing is that Coach McCauley and I want to get the community of Pine Bluff behind this program and get some fundraising going and hopefully get things set to where the university can move on and have the program successful so kids can come to Pine Bluff and improve their golf game in addition to getting a great education.
