I had a conversation with him and have seen him have some other interactions as well.  My read is completely different, he comes across intelligent, pragmatic and not afraid to make a tough decision.  He is good at networking and fundraising but I also believe he has the skills to succeed in making good tough decisions as well, we will see.

Something about having memes posted on your wall that you point to in interviews that say things like keep calm and play to your strengths makes me more cautious than optimistic.

Have you ever been optimistic about anything?

I'm 99% confident that MK has this hanging in his office.

Why don't those posters ever tell the truth?

I’m sure there has to be a time or two but they don’t come to mind.

What I’ve noticed is that even though we have totally sucked and have been unexpectedly worse that we have in recent years, the home crowds are noticeably larger.  I knew we’d draw for Wisconsin and BYU, but we had decent crowds for SMU and scsu.  And we suck. Crowd seemed smaller when we were winning consistently.  I have to think Kelly has something to do with this.

Is he Ubering people to the games as a side hustle?

I like Kelly; he is a nice guy but did he make a lot of tough decisions being a party planner for the P5 playoff teams? His best qualities would seem to be networking and fundraising but some of those qualities don’t really translate to being cutthroat. He comes across very corporate cheerleader where as if you aren’t a sociopath I wouldn’t trust you to lead anything of importance.

We have different reads on him. Don't think he'll shrink from making the tough decisions. You don't need to be a ***** to do your job.
