It is weird, he never really had a chance at Yates. He had an awesome run at Daytona in the ARCA car, had like 3 races in the Busch car and struggled, then just disappeared.
In fact, I think at one point he was ahead of Stephen Leicht. If I remember correctly, when the Elliott Sadler rumors were just starting, Yates pulled a last minute switch and put McCall into the Busch car (and pulled Sadler out ) and put Leicht into the ARCA car at Memphis. (Leicht went on to win that race)
I think once Eddie D'Hondt was fired it sealed his fate with Yates.
Too bad he cant go back to Roush. Roush seems to be using all of the Driver X guys in one way or another.
I am a Yates fan, and love the 38 car, but maybe getting away from yates would be the best thing for him.
