Where Mike has Been

“It was a wonderful experience for our entire program when Mike Corey came and spoke to us about the vocation of sports broadcasting. Mike layed out how hard you have to work and what the parallels are between being a teammate, being someone that works at their craft and venturing into that profession. We wanna thank Mike for that experience because our guys still talk about it”
