I cannot recall oscar Weber ever taking ownership of a mistake/failure/etc.   He probably has, and I haven't heard it.  Most coaches do take ownership and admit mistakes (e.g. Snyder does it all the time), so it's probably me that's wrong, but I sure can't recall it happening.

I believe this is correct. He either makes excuses or blames the players.  Very losery.

I can't either.

Here's a primer:

“First, let me thank you for caring so very much about our football basketball family of which you are a tremendous part. And, please accept my apology for the manner in which we represented you on Saturday. I know you are pained by the outcome, as I am. I hope that you will appreciate our players for never giving up even in the face of such adversity and the loss of so many of their teammates. I am proud of them and must do a better job of preparing them than I did Saturday. Please know you are greatly appreciated and considered a major part of this football basketball family.”

I believed the Illinois fans then, and I welcome you back now to tell these people "I told you so."

Though, I knew what oscar Weber was as soon as he was hired at Illinois, when he disparaged Bill Self and held that shameful fake funeral.

You are right.

I'm surprised Kellis took him at his word about the players choosing not to speak to the media.

Weber forbade them from contact after this game, too:

http://www.smilepolitely.com/culture/illini_players_are_ruining_it_for_coach_weber/

I linked that column here on the day Currie hired him. It's still apt today. If you could passive-aggressive your way into championships, Brooth would be undefeated.
