...Hopefully, the athletic department puts together a travel package for alums similar to the Cuba trip.

Maybe they can put a life size cutout of JK in the lobby of Tudor with a bubble message that says "Hey, Rice will open their 2017 Football season in Sydney vs Stanford". That may be the only word we get from JK. Seriously this is really beginning to irritate me...the lack of visibility/contact from JK. Mello, Tanner, Shu, everyone in the athletic offices are working their asses off and are constantly at games making sure things are going correctly but JK is even more invisible than Greenspan was.

Although it sounds kind of silly, part of me almost wonders if JK has been purposely lying low for a week or two - letting some of the fan base anger over the Bailiff extension diffuse a bit. I think Bailiff may be applying the same strategy. In the past he frequently showed up and supported the basketball team. I haven't seen him lately. I wonder if he too is going to lie low for a while - minimizing appearances at other sporting events.
