I'm proud to be part of the Dr. Pepper Scholarship Giveaway. It's a great program that gives me the chance to brighten the day for some lucky college students with free tuition.
I think N.C. State is on the threshold of being an outstanding program. The only problem is the ACC. It's such a great conference now.
