My guest on this episode is Ross Steelman from Georgia Tech University. Ross is heading into the postseason with the Yellow Jackets looking to capture an ACC championship this weekend at the Country Club of North Carolina. Steelman is a Columbia, MO native and arrived at Georgia Tech after a successful run at Mizzou. We spoke shortly after the Linger Longer Invitational last month and we discussed his start in the game, how he approaches staying in the moment during tournaments.....and what waits for him after college. This is a highly entertaining episode. Not gonna lie, we had a bunch of fun and considering the fact that I am a Kansas guy and he is a Missouri guy......this really could have gone sideways fast.
