For the past 14 years, he has been the voice of the MHS Buckaroos, while covering football and basketball over the radio for KAAJ-LP in Monticello.
Rhett has a bachelor’s degree in telecommunications from Ball State in Muncie, IN, where he focused on television and radio journalism.
He moved to Monticello in 2003. Rhett helped to start and continues to run the radio station. KAAJ-LP is owned by the First Baptist Church in Monticello.
Rhett and his wife Abby were married in June 2017. She works as a nurse at San Juan Hospital.
