Not how you imply it.

Nolan came out and basically said "frick YOOOOUUU" to Arkansas and its fans at the point before he was fired.

How were fans supposed to react?

That's not what "fickle" means.

I had completely forgotten about the existence of Cherokee Parks prior to watching that.

Im not implying anything. If you were alive then and old enough to remember the Pony Years until the firing, he was turned on. The start of it was his BCA comments, the people started getting tired of the rhetoric. That is what I mean, I guess you arent getting what I am typing, or probably I never make it clear enough.

Nolan's remarks initially pissed of a lot of fans, including me. I guess it really confused me more than anything else. It just didn't add up. But I was angry.

When people started getting more information, it helped a lot of people understand. I hate that Frank did what he did and I hate that Nolan played into his hand with his anger. On the other hand, some people just never liked Nolan. It was obvious to me why. I happen to know a few people like that. That shite is real, believe it or not.

In your mind, fans "turned on him".

Did they stop going to games? No. Arkansas was still in the top 12-15 in attendance up until his firing. Arkansas was second only to Kentucky in SEC attendance in those years. Are those fickle fans? HELL NO.

Did they organize and call for his firing?

No.

You're making a claim about "fickle fans" with zero basis. So, no, I don't get what you are saying and I probably never will.

Because its kind of a retarded stretch to draw some parallel with another situation that doesn't exist.

It betrays your bitterness about the U of A in general.

ETA: quit being dumb.

He went to the hero to the goat, definition of being turned on by people. But it gets revised as the years go on. People hate Frank now, they turned on him. But if it wasn't for Frank, Arkansas isn't what it is right now.

Wrong. People hate what happened and I can't think of many fans who hate either, Frank or Nolan.

It's BS that they didn't show how he is the ONLY coach to win a NJCAA NIT and NCAA title



They mentioned it during the show, then repeated the statement in the credits.

I would like to have seen "updates" for the rest of the roster.

White did get his side out some but not sure it was needed.



White also made an interesting comment about how important to him it was that Nolan told and portrayed to the fan base that he was "happy" at all times...

You're a negative nancy, and you're bitter about not going to Arkansas.

You really should let that go.

Actually, if you will go back and watch the press conferences his statements was directed towards the Arkansas media, he was tired of the non-stop calls about "are you going to be fired, do you want to be fired" etc during that week.

He felt that the media was not helping him, so why should he help them.
