If you gave me the choice between $15M and the perfect spouse I would choose the latter.
Yup, Trouba's quote that I posted earlier I think might tell the story here.

"It's a great opportunity for myself and my fiancée" because "her career is as important as my career."

I think that'd be a completely valid reason which many would respect if he said something similar. But Johnny's answers came off unprepared, cold, and awkward... and certainly haven't helped the growing ill will. Trouba explained he didn't want to attribute his decision to that reasoning initially either because it puts the spouse in the firing line.
