 The University of Alabama, their business school, is an excellent school and it prepared me for everything that I was going to be doing from then on. It was a great base. Now from there to public accounting and to business, up against a lot of businessmen and attorneys in New York and Boston, I never once felt inadequate. I was always comfortable in the setting because of the base that I had gotten at the University of Alabama. After I graduated from the University of Alabama, I was a CPA for seven years of Price Waterhouse and then I went out on my own in the cable television business and we had just sold our first cable company in 1988 and I bought a house at Shoal Creek and the PGA Championship was held there in 1990 and the PGA was looking for places to keep pros and by chance they put Aaron Palmer in my guest house and it was just a friendship for about several months later I was reading some cable literature about channel compression technology is going to give us the ability to put on more channels and I started thinking about what do people want to see that they would like that they don't see enough of and golf was atop my list so I did some research and came back real positive so I called Arnold and we started working on it and then we finally got on the air in January of 95
