I disagree. Treliving came out and said that he tried with several proposals that included proposals that had annual dollars that was more than competitive. No reason not to believe him. I think Treliving was unwilling to offer both term and dollars but it didn't sound like Treliving felt his offers were not competitive and wasn't going to get it done. Cammalleri went to the highest bidder. He always does. The mistake is believing he will take a discount to stay.
