About the author:
Alex is a second-year Psychology major, with minors in college sports, fantasy sports, and poker, preferring college basketball, fantasy baseball, and no-limit texas hold'em. While UVA is Alex's school, he still has a strong allegiance to the Longhorns of Texas, having lived in Austin and watched Ricky Williams run into the record books. He spends most of his weekends watching his Longhorns and Wahoos and following recruiting online. In Alex's eyes March is the best sports month of the year for obvious reasons and Vince Young is a saint.
