"I think there's a certain pride people have in competition.

There's certain things that I was taught growing up about not quitting and seeing things through. I think if I would have come home and told my dad that I was going to quit the team, I think he would have kicked me out of the house. I don't think I'd have a place to stay."

He continued.

"My dad used to always say, 'The grass is always greener on top of the septic tank.'

So it always looks better someplace else. So you think, instead of facing your fears and really overcoming adversity and making yourself better through the competition, you go someplace else thinking it will be better there.

But until you face your fears, you're always going to have some of those issues or problems."
