Not really. He got caught in the middle of a power struggle, where he was
the fair haired guy of the wrong person.

It's amusing that media reports of Walker's demands constantly get countered
(see a couple examples in today's postings) with 'have you ever heard him

with getting Mashburn' are to be accepted at face value as signs of his
cluelessness or incompetence.
