At the time, [Bailey's high school coach Jeff] Horn didn't know I was going to join, and he really didn't want me to join. |
I didn't get a lot of recognition out of high school. That kind of hurt me. But coach Horn always said,'Keep your head up because you're going to get there one day. |
It's maturity -- I'm not your average recruit. I can talk better with the coaches on a one-on-one basis, and they love it. |
Most people had their slots already filled, and here I come out of nowhere. |
You take it one day at a time (and) you thank God for what you have that day. Now I have a chance to do something I love. |
