This cutie just transferred to Mizzou this semester. He’s got a great sense of humor and a big heart. We are sorry to report, collegiettes that this fella is off the market. A girl can still dream, though!
Name: Zachary (Zac) Taylor
Hometown: Festus, MO
Major: Sports Management
Year: Junior
Relationship Status: Currently tied down to the ball and chain. Sorry ladies!
Favorite Quote: “Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory.” – George S. Patton
Favorite Movie: Anchorman, No question about it!
Unique Fact: Hmm…I have a knack for getting people to laugh. Some say I’m quite funny.
Most embarrassing moment: I tripped going up the stairs in high school and dropped my books. Everyone pointed and laughed. No, they didn’t but that’s what it felt like.
Favorite place in Columbia: This is a tough one considering this is my first year up here. Gumby’s I guess. It is the best pizza around town after all.
Pets: I have a chocolate lab back home, and his name is Payton. He’s the best dog ever!
Hidden talent: I can dazzle a bit on the drum set.
Favorite Mizzou Memory so far: The whole weekend of when we played Georgia. It was just crazy!
Perfect Date: This is tough considering I think about this all of the time. Just a fun night out to a Cardinals game then go eat somewhere that has pasta, specifically chicken fettuccine.
What I look for in a girl is: She has to be able to joke around. I guess another important thing to me would be trust; without that, there is no relationship!
Favorite Study Spot: The J School! I study there with my best friend a lot.
One thing on my bucket list is: To graduate with a degree and to have a job that I love.
Dream Job: I am going to school to be an athletic director. It just seems perfect to me at any level- high school or college as long as I get to interact with athletes, be around sports and be able to help them as students.
Who is your celebrity girl/guy crush? Eva Mendes… Woof!
If you could have a super power what would it be and why? Not really a ‘super power’ but to be able to help everyone in the world I think would be a great thing to do.
If you could travel anywhere, where would you go? This is tough! I definitely want to go to Germany during Oktoberfest and wouldn’t mind going to Greece or Italy.
