I don't know. I can speculate. JG1 left cause he was burnt out. I think his only reason for coming back and it's only my oppinion is for his son. I think he was trying to get his son established in a football coaching situation and 2 yrs into it his son decided it was not for him and bailed to get involved in Motocross. I think ST's death and a struggling season wore on JG2, plus he needed to get back to his JG Racing. I think there were issues there. I think he felt he had set the Skins up coaching wise for the future and decided to leave this time around. Then DS shit canned the whole thing JG2 assembled.
I'm betting the dinner was a "I'm sorry for screwing up what you did for me, can you help me out again" type of dinner.
Honestly I don't know why he didn't. Maybe it was not offered like some of us thought it was. Maybe JG simply was not ready to take on that roll with all his grandson being sick and the issues with his Racing team (and I'm refering to Stewart leaving unless that happened after.)
