Sometimes people need to learn their lessons the hard way -- he should experience first hand the general angst that others have felt about this whole episode. I am sure HJ et al in management will attempt to sweep it all under the carpet and put the best face on it. Good for them, but the kid needs to understand that having an agent is all well and good, but if he can't learn to manage his agent then whatever tempest that individual stirs up on his behalf he is responsible for and should face the consequences. A little ribbing from his team-mates and whatever greeting he gets in first appearance at the Liberty will only serve to recalibrate his thinking.
