Anyone know if he even still plays?? I know the John Schmidt an Danny match seems to be something that has captured peoples attention. I also know that TAR have tried to make it happen again. So wondering why it didn't happen. Does anyone know him?

He played in the Accustats "Make it Happen" 14.1 event in New Jersey which took place on or about August 1. Defintely played at Derby City this past winter, too.
I guess I don't keep my eye out sometimes. Thanks.for the info

Mark, I think the reason why we aren't seeing a rematch between them is because neither one of them wants to put their intense and very public dislike for each other aside and settle this on the table. Very sad when grown men can't get the proper perspective on the game. I wish they were all like Shane and Jayson and just take on all comers and leave their personal feelings aside.
The attempt at the third installment of Schmidt/Harriman TAR was defunct I believe because John was contacted first and offered an appearance fee and Danny said he wasn't going to play since they offered John money and not him. I think Justin said he was (obviously) going to pay both players but it got out of hand before it even started and the whole deal was washed.
This is just my recollection of events and may not be accurate. Other than readings here, I had no involvement with any of the parties included in the above. The parenthetical 'obviously' above is my choice of wording from my perspective on the matter and doesn't reflect Justin's opinion.
If you get John and Danny to play on PPV. I'll buy it.

I think the TAR guys showed bad judgement, but they didn't intend to, and it was an honest mistake.
John was offered first, and then he refused, and then TAR seeing no need to offer to Danny didn't offer to him.
The offer should have gone to both at the same time out in the open, but I don't think TAR tried to be unfair, but it appeared to be. I take Justin at his word, and frankly I don't see him as a liar.
What I got from his last discussion on the topic is he was sick and tired of it and wanted to move on.
I wish the best for the guys at TAR, John Schmidt and Danny Harriman.

Regardless of their feelings for each other, these two make a great match up. The rematch on TAR was phenomenal with the one pocket going hill-hill in a race to 10 and the 10 ball was something like 30-28. The straight pool had I think 4 runs of over 100.
They are very evenly matched and I wouldn't mind sweating a little more action .
Good business judgement on JCIN's part: With so many other possible matches, don't waste your time and effort on people who make your life difficult.
How about a Van Corteza vs. Biado match? Does Justin have a rooster?
