A little about Mr. Todd Kelly

Was covering a camp when he committed but I wanted to chime in ...
Love this kid. On the field. Off the field. Just a solid young dude. And no, I don't say that about everyone.
We've had a lot of good conversations over the months, so I've gotten to know him reasonably well.
But no, I didn't know he'd commit this weekend. He's said all along he'd wait.
Anyway, just wanted to say that it's also important when building a team to get good guys. Guys that can be leaders in the lockerroom. Leaders in the community.
Good faces for the program. Don't want to put any undo pressure on TK, but I think he can be that type of guy.
Great get. .... in more ways than just football.
IMO, this is a commit worth celebrating for the UT nation.

I was a little surprised you didn't break the story, Keith, considering how well you know him. I guess he just couldn't help himself!

Kids are kids ... They have to do it when they feel right.
