Does anyone have experience being in an entourage or have been surrounded by one for fight preparation?
I haven't seen a thread on this yet. 
Honda has a posse.
I think it's good in this sport to absolutely have a few cheerleaders around, but too many yes men and you're dead in the water.
Having the right people around for a fight camp is greatto have, the wrong people and the situation becomes toxic fast.
Personally I don't go to the gym or take a shit without at least a hype man.
