100% sure Kearsely had influence on attracting him but certainly couldn't land him. Sheesh! I'm not sure you are aware how the inner workings actually work and you give media and journalists a lot of credence — including the journalists who run 247. 🙂

But here we are completely aligned: I'm legitimately thrilled for Caleb and that we share a love of the Cougars!
