I’m not sure you’re grasping for anything but it’s funny how people hear what they want to hear. The people that listened to his interview heard him say in so many words he was staying in Lafayette. Did he say the actual words “I declined the job.” ? No but he said they built the plane(program) and they wanna fly it a bit. The optimistic fans hear the latter and are confident in his genuine nature. Others that hear different just wanna be right to say I told you so. Which category do you fall under? 😉
