Not like the team called a press conference to announce he has not returned their calls. That was a report by a reporter whose "source" told him that. This is the same reporter who has not been concerned with the effects of his reports on team or its players in the past.
Unfortunately we have not heard the Coach or someone in the organization refute that assertion. Even Mike T has not refuted that one point. One has to conclude until there is some definitive rebuttal that it was true.
