Guys, I just got off the phone with my super insidery shoe company exec source. Supposedly the old guy that looks like Richard Branson called Jim Kelly and told him in no uncertain terms that he is not to play KSU unless it is in the NC. Said that he didn't want his company's flagship fashion uni getting beaten so bad that the general public equates wearing his gear to getting beaten savagely.
Used to have the public fooled into thinking that their shoes make ppl jump higher. Doesn't want public perception to become something about his jerseys making ppl's blood flow more freely and tackles hurting more getting started.
The exec told me that they have been having meetings on this weekly for about 2.5 yrs now and that this has been that company's priority number 1 and that the head guy told LeBron to GTFOO his office once when he thought he saw a teaser on ESPN's crawl about a future match up, only to make the call and have Kelly assure him that he is too scared to do such a thing.
