Honest questions. I’m not trying to be provocative.

I kinda think yes, they care.
If you have a mentor, do you care if that person is someone you trust, have confidence in their knowledge, and believe that they are able to help you improve?

That doesn't mean the young go-getter can't move up and help you, but it may take a while for you to build that rapport.

As far as CJ goes, after two years together, I think you'd be safe to say that the knowledge offload were complete at that point. Old dogs and new tricks, ya know?

Because he is from Canadia?

Because he didn't play college ball at a P5 school?
