Little awkward moment when McKenna said she wants to be a speaker and writer like her mom. Melvin and Guthrie didn't really know where to go with a follow up on that, ha.

Here is LSU Gym's TWITTER video of the whole segment - quite a bit of LSU coverage included



This is funny:
The Today show had a picture of Sarah Finnigan instead of McKenna. The two have been jokingly going at it on twitter this morning:
.@sfinnegan37 wanted to be on the Today show too






McKenna Kelley
?

@mckennamckelley

Replying to @LSUgym @sfinnegan37
It was an honor to accidentally be confused w @sfinnegan37 for a hot second


Sarah Finnegan
?
Sarah Finnegan Retweeted LSU Gymnastics
Nah, I just wanted to be like Mckenna Kelley

Her attitude is very attractive to me. Seems like a fun person to be around.

Interesting interview!

Mother seemed ambivalent about McKenna's announced decision to forego her 5th year.

Injuries can be psychologically-debilitating.

That may be what is at stake here. The younger Kelly is coming in and maybe McKenna might want to GA or perhaps re-assess her decision to forego that special opportunity. But again, injuries really affect the athelete's mindset and its not all pleasant. Good luck to McKenna and her dear mother is a huge asset to the LSU Program. Mary Lou Retton Kelly made several efforts to put LSU Gymnastics front and center on NBC. Thank you Mary Lou R Kelly.

The more I look at the picture of them in front of the poster with the picture of Sarah the more I laugh.

Mary Lou doesn't give a crap. She is happy as a lark regardless.

McKenna is acting and doing a good job of doing her "WTF" face for the camera.
