Thanks for posting the letter, BobK.  It's a classy and well thought out thank you letter.  I understand some of the Old (and some of the immature) Blues being unhappy about his decision.  The BI thread is about what I expect of our rivals.  The thin envelope has a way of bringing out anger and vitriol from many an insecure mind.  It's why Dean Fred started telling people that he was in the "intelligence community" whenever he was asked about his job.  Here in the Bay Area we are going to run into many angry, jealous, etc... UCB alums that use the hate word. 

The GSB story didn't make sense to me unless he was pursuing a PhD.  He would have brought very little to a GSB classroom.  The MSE is a great outcome for him and I wish him luck on and off the field.  The chance to play with his brother is clearly an added bonus that holds meaning to him.  He's had a rough road at UCB (injury and program wise), hopefully his luck is changing with this decision.
