Yes, he was wanting to add dd's teammate to the team as well and had limited money for that year. I understood where he was coming from. However, we had turned down offers equal to his first offer. So, we went back at it. DD is in a great situation where she is now and, to be honest, the wife and I have had to shell out very little money along the way.
Sometimes things have a way of working out for the best....I know we felt "sucker punched" a couple of times during the recruiting process, but could not be happier with the way things worked out!
