I don't know the whole story on this, or who to believe. But I did go to one event this summer, and I can tell you being aggressive wasn't the issue. He was pretty clear about how much he needed, they had it all mapped out and that he needed people to step up. Even texted me the next day to get me to donate as I'm sure he did to everyone else that the event. (I did donate, but I'll just tell you that I'm not moving any needles, too much real life stuff to pay for).

I really enjoyed meeting him that night. He was very personable but again, very serious about what they needed to compete. And as I left I remember thinking what a thankless job this is to go around asking people for money to pay the players. And then to probably have to go back to the same limited number of people and keep asking them to give again.

I'll always root for him. He's one of us. If it doesn't work out then so be it. Hope he finds happiness back as an assistant or whatever else he decides to do.
