Looking at that picture makes me think he's gonna rip my face off. I think he's going to be a good one for us!
I don't know him personally, but I had a chance to meet him at a golf outing earlier in the summer. He came up to our hole as we were teeing off. Obviously, at those sort of things he has to be a politician. You know, shaking hands and making small talk. But he made sure to say hi to everyone in the group, looked everyone in the eye and asked their name and shook their hand. He joked around a bit, but for the most part he was serious and to the point. He said over and over again how appreciative he was for the support he and the football team has been getting since he got to Ames.
