At the funeral, Mitch asked Butch to live with him in New York.

"He said coach there's no reason for you to stay down here in Louisiana," Butch recalled. "You come to New York with me and enjoy yourself and get your mind back straight, because you know how much you loved your wife."

Butch took him up on the offer and has been Mitch's roommate since the start of the season.
