I just watched it. It's very clear from the footage that all these high-level guys knew Alite. Vinny Butch seemed particularly fond of Alite lol
There is no way he'd be there if he was a nobody. If I was Alite, I'd stop explaining myself
No doubt if these guys don’t all go down its a good chance that Alite stays with them and ends up making good money even though he was just to take a bulletin or shot one if needed other then a made guy having to do anything….. because they knew they were being watched.
Really have no way of knowing how far Alite could of gone with one of the other skippers that liked him ….. he would of been moved up ….. and another guy takes his places at bottom watching….. he definitely learned how to make money and had no problem getting violent.
