Twelve Questions With Women's Basketball Junior Tatum Barber

Time to get to know some Georgia Southern student-athletes a little better with 12 Questions, presented by Case iH Agriculture, Tidewater and Morris Bank. This week it's Tatum Barber, a junior forward for the Eagle women's basketball team.

1. Which of your current coaches would win in a rap battle?

Definitely Coach Howard would take the win on that one!

2. What is the craziest thing your parents have ever done after a win or loss?

My parents really haven't ever done anything super crazy. There's definitely been lots of very quiet car rides home, but also tons of big hugs and yummy dinners after winning some State Championships.

3. What is your pregame ritual?

Nothing real crazy. I always pray before taking the court, and you'll always see me with my headphones before the game. I usually spend about 30 minutes stretching and shooting before we warm up.

4. What is your definition of a good teammate?

My definition of a good teammate is someone who holds themselves accountable first, and then holds everybody else to the same standards. Someone you can count on, on and off the court. Someone who leads by actions and not just words, and someone who always hypes you up, even if it's just for the littlest things.

5. Do you think there's life on other planets and if so, do they play basketball?

I actually think about stuff like this quite a lot, but no, I don't think there is life on other planets. But if there is - then yes, I definitely think they play basketball.

6. What has been your favorite show or movie to binge during the quarantine?

My new favorite shows that I found was definitely Money Heist, or The 100. But Grey's Anatomy never does me wrong, so that one is always my go to.

7. Who was your childhood sports idol?

My childhood sports idols were definitely Kobe or Jordan, but Diana Taurasi is also a woman I love to watch play.

8. What's one place in the world you'd really like to travel to?

Australia is definitely on my bucket list.

9. They're making a reality TV show about your life. What channel would be broadcasting it?

Hmmmm, I think probably MTV or something like that.

10. What food or dish can you cook very well, and what one dish do you wish you could cook really well?

Chicken Alfredo is definitely my specialty, just ask any of my friends! 😂Something I wish I knew how to cook, I guess just like different types of seafood.

11. You can record a duet with any musical artist - who would it be with?

Justin Bieber, no doubt.

12. Name one pet peeve that really gets on your nerves.

Something that really gets on my nerves is when someone says they need to tell me something, but then says nevermind! That definitely irritates me!
