Seems like a boss. Ole Miss fans, got my BS from Mizzou and many think this guy could replace our AD in a few years. What are your thoughts on him?

I think he's an excellent AD. He's a big change from Ole Miss' "good ole boy" network ADs of the past. They needed new facilities and momentum and he came and delivered both.
He might need to get off twitter, but he's been a hell of an AD so far.
FWIW, I graduated from Ole Miss in 2010.

He may need to lay off the twitter battles a little but he's one hell of an AD. We better do everything we can to keep him.

I'll admit, I'm not a fan of the red blazer that he's always sporting, but other than that and his propensity to engage in twitter wars, he's been an awesome AD. Very engaging with fans and the OM culture.
I know that OM is probably not a destination job but we need to try whatever it takes to hold on to him

Let Bjork go and hire me to replace him (since I'm in collegiate athletics administration now, you know).

I'll have to disagree with the red blazer comment but I agree with the rest
When I was covering Ole Miss sports, every time I came in contact with him he was always very engaging and would stand and talk to you for 10+ minutes at a time if he wasn't too busy. And it wouldn't always be about sports. He'd ask how I was doing, if I needed help with anything or just life in general. He may not want to stay at Ole Miss forever, but after being around him, he definitely made me think he wants to be here for good. He's definitely a breath of fresh air that the athletics department and the university needed. We need to get away from the "good ole boy" system and he's one giant step in that direction.
And if Ross did leave, I think we need to promote Kyle Campbell to his position. Campbell is just like Ross and would be a great hire if need be.

I love the guy. I think we will lose him to a big football school in a few years, but not Mizzou.

He's ours

He hasn't really had a chance to make many hires yet (is WBK his only one?). So I don't have much of an opinion on him.

Top three AD in the conference IMO. Not an Ole Miss fan but I respect that guy.

The Swedish singer? Wasn't he a part of Abba?

Absolutely disagree. He may be a good candidate for External AD one day, but he has ZERO fundraising experience. Scott Stricklin lucked into his position. I don't want another Scott Stricklin.
