I was a bit of an anomaly at Ohio State in that I was one of the few college basketball players in history who preferred country to rap music. And by “country” I mean the countriest of country (George Strait, Tracy Lawrence, Alan Jackson, etc.), not that pop-country stuff that’s popular today (like Taylor Swift, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, etc.). In other words, I don’t think my taste in music could’ve been any more opposite than the rest of my teammates.
