Best of luck to him, but the more I read, the more I agree, we dodged a bullet. First, we don't even know if he could maintain his B average for the semester. If he doesn't then we're up the creek without the paddle. Second, if he did maintain the B average he probably would have struggled from the get go and become ineligible after the first semester.
I have a feeling BK backed off of him and that's why he said he wasn't coming.
Here's why......A long time ago, I was interviewing for a job that required a lot of sales. The guy told me that you have to be able to ask the tough questions, read the signs and then close or move on. The first half of his recruitment was okay, but as it moved closer to the point of closing the deal, the signs were there that it wasn't happening (as many on here had pointed out). In reality, we should have wished IM luck and walked away from him a long time ago.
Hope he ends up happy wherever he lands.
