Agreed. Crimson was probably either his team mate, or his personal student. It's also possible that he's Ruby's father, but never found out until he met her, and feels reapoaibal for not helping Ruby's mom, and her eventual death. However, I'm still on the fence about that theory. Maybe he feels that with his position of power, he should be doing more for the worlds problems, like the oppression of the Fauna. Chances are, most of his mistakes regard things we haven't heard of yet.
