God damn he is likable. Seems genuine, intelligent and a big picture guy. Almost teared up seeing him almost tear up talking about his mom.

[Ryan-jchi]

Didn't think I'd be this excited about a GM hire. Kwesi is incredibly likable and I am very excited to see the direction of this franchise with him at the helm. He is insanely smart and his resume is incredibly impressive.

[stevehelt]

Genuine, driven, takes challenges head on, passionate, all great leadership traits.

[mleaf]

Impressed with Kwesi and have to give a nod to the Wilfs who have done what they said they would about this hire. It was quick and decisive and gives clear signals for change in the organization. Loads of respect for those who left and a clear new chapter here. Nice work.

[MIKERUPTION]

I love the fact that he got choked up speaking about his parents. Relationships matter to him. Building that feeling of oneness is going to foster those intangibles that win championships. I have a great feeling about the future of the Vikings!

[purpleeinstein]

Dude seems both genuine & humble. I could see him apologizing to our opponent for beating them in the Super Bowl. I wish Kwesi and the entire team all the best! SKOL

[aerick]

Very Impressive First Presser! I haven't been this excited about our direction as a football team in a long time.

[beautepley]

I like a guy who speaks from the heart and not from a script. Just give it to us straight and I think we'll be getting that from him. Good hire for sure. I'm excited!

[TheWyatt]

Had my worries with moving on from Rick. After this press conference, that has been put at ease. All on board with ya Kwesi! Loved the press conference

[heathatwood]

I am shocked a little bit at how truly excited I am to have this man helping to lead the ship. He sounds like the type of person we need. This feels like a great fit. Proud to say hes our guy! SKOL!!!

[bromontana]

People who know kwesi from San Francisco or Cleveland know exactly what's about to happen with this team. Great jobs Mark and Ziggy. This new brand of Vikings football is going to be a very tough team to beat and the light on Mark's face clearly shows it!

[nickolasmeyers]

I have never been more excited for a new Era in Minnesota ! I think we have found the man for the job needing done here and I am excited to see where this man can take us

[lugnuts]

Love this guy! He is definitely an incredible and capable leader, personable and professional. Great things are going to happen now! Go Vikings!

[kjl]

I think this will be a home run hire. Hopefully everyone else in the organization and front office can buy into what Kwesi wants to do with this team. Continuity equals success. I’m looking forward to our future with Kwesi leading the way. SKOL!

[watchlist]

Absolutely killed this interview. 100% love this man!

[leon]

This guy is incredible, not speaking off of a script. He is very down to earth and incredibly smart. This is what we have been looking for. Thank you so much for taking the job. SKOL

[KTF]

MN VIKINGS HAVE ONE OF THE BEST FAN BASED IN NFL PERIOT! LETS GO VIKES AND WELCOME KWESI ADOFO-MENSAH!! BIGGER THINGS TO COME!

[conmor]

As a Browns fan, I have to say im upset that the Vikings took him from us. However, I can say you guys have an immensely bright future with this man at the helm of your franchise. These are hands that I could 100% say you could trust any franchise in to succeed.

[mikecurrie]

Love this guy already. I wish him nothing but the best, not merely because I’m a life long Viking fan, but on an individual level. He had inspired me and I am not even part of the organization.

Sometimes you don't know what your team is missing until you get it. Looking foward to greatness next season. This guy is smart, thoughtful, humble, articulate, people and team builder, wants to listen and learn. Wow what a change.
