Prior to going to college, I had a pretty strong accent, and that was one of the things I had to work on a lot.

Look at how many North Carolina kids have played for me or tried out for me or coached with me.

Because I love the school, and I worship him.

Jeff Hardy

I studied journalism at The University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill. I did my graduate work at Emerson in Boston, and I was actually a reporter for a year in New York and New Jersey.

You know, if you really want to fiddle the old-time way, you've got to learn the dance. The contra-dances, hoedowns. It's all in the rhythm of the bow.
