I still love the philosophy behind the Prince hire, he just turned out to be a crazy kook and I was fine with letting him go.

lol at the idea that nigel doesn't want to compete for playing time if he transfers and he's not just trying to get as far away from this staff as possible

Like shocking really, he was gunning to Prince to be fired essentially as soon as he was hired. But he still needs more time to figure out ole oscar-y boy. And its doubly ironic that he pulls this "I don't hate the program enought..." BS when he was rooting for the football team to lose because he wanted Prince out.Oh my. I hated the Prince hire, yes. My argument was he was horribly unqualified. (Less qualified than Snyder when we hired him, even though our program was in a much better place, was how I put it.) I've argued in lots of posts that I prefer hiring coaches who have experience. I made the same argument against hiring Venables until he proved himself at Clemson in my eyes. I thought the whole Doug Gottlieb thing was a joke for the same reason.But sure, stir the pot and label me a racist, bad person. (Sorry filter is on at work.)So it was OK for you to have the opinion that Prince was a terrible hire and to not give him a chance because a) you didn't like the hire and b) didn't like his personality, but people who thought Weber was a terrible hire and didn't give him the full chance you think he should have received (and still should be getting) "hate oscar so much they want the program to fail"? I doubt race has much part to play in your stance on this, but it all has to do with the fact that you liked oscar, liked what he stood for, liked the type of basketball you think he idealizes while you didn't like Prince, what he stood for, the style of football he played. You didn't wait for Prince to fail two years in a row.Well thanks for walking back your position a bit to the point where you're accusing me of being only somewhat racist, and calling it a stylistic difference. You're still overstating the matter though, and still an bad person for doing so. You don't know me.What Prince stood for? I had no opinion on what Prince "stood for." Winning and losing coaches come in all types. rough ridin' hell man, I don't even know what to write to you. Once you level an accusation like that online there's no way to respond appropriately. That I had friends of many different races and religions growing up and didn't even realize it? Including my best friend as a kid? True, but "that's what a racist would say!" That I've lived comfortably in neighborhoods in Brooklyn where whites were about a 2% minority? True, but "that's how a racist would defend himself." That I've been employed as a community advocate for underpriviliged communities of color? Yes, but "he hated Prince, ipso facto RACIST!"Okay fine, FIRE WEBER NOW! BURN IT DOWN! Am I edgy now? Am I not a racist anymore?My arguments for oscar had nothing to do with style. I didn't know jack crap about his style when he was hired, I just knew his win-loss numbers, so I relied on those. Whatever, man. Whatever.

It's silly to speculate because NONE OF US know what is going on but this could be just as simple as Nigel's nameplate falling off his locker. Not trying to sugarcoat anything but adhesives and mechanical fasteners are funny things and if his nameplate wasn't affixed properly it could have easily fallen off. I'm sure there is a logical explanation. If I had to guess, maybe, well then again we arent hearing much so I dont know.
the best thing is the posts following that thanking fitz for working so hard. he is the bitb at tuck talk
