Dillon Pulliam is a walk-on on the University of Kentucky basketball team and an engineering major, two things that do not normally go together. Being part of the Kentucky basketball team is hard, but adding a computer engineering major to that almost seems impossible. Not for Pulliam.

“It’s going to be a rough semester,” Pulliam told the Lexington Herald-Leader. “So, hopefully I can handle it all. They are classes I enjoy, though. I mean, I have to have them for my major.”

To add even more to his busy schedule, Pulliam plans to computer science as a second major.
