What is Jack's advice for breaking into the industry?

Picture
"That's super easy. If you want to do something, do it… let's say you want to be the Director of Communications for the PGA Tour. You're not going to get the job as Director of Communications for the PGA Tour…let's say you could get the job as the director of communications for the New Hampshire Golf Association, or the New Hampshire PGA. That would be way better off I think, than going and getting an internship at the PGA Tour and doing something completely different than what you'd want to do."

"Another great example is, let's say you want to be Jim Nantz. Don't go work for CBS as a P.A., you're not going to get the experience of doing play by play… Let's say you want to be on air talent, don't take a job as a producer. That's just gonna get you stuck behind the camera, and you're gonna be there for the rest of your life."
