Question for the Nate haters…or as I like to call them…Naters

Thug U.

By the way, where has been his wife these days, she is never seen?

ETA: The school kicked the kid off of campus, so, no…Nate did not initiate him off of the team.

I was wondering because the rant told me what a scoundrel Nate is for a couple of years….

This is very true. I don't think KU/UNC or Duke would ever touch him

Would not include Kansas on that list. Nothing against them but I don't see it being a drawback for them.

The bottom line about Oats is that he goes way extra standing by his players. Other fan bases hate that when there's a situation like the one with Brandon Miller and they want blood or Bediako wanting to come back for another season.

It's not just all about winning though since he's consistently doing it in the opposite direction as well and that frustrates his own fan base at times.

Players like Bradley at (Arizona), Dioubate (Kentucky) and (Stephenson) have mentioned how helpful Oats was after they decided to transfer. It annoys a lot of fans that he's so supportive of players sitting out a season with minor injuries to preserve a year when they could help the team.

You do realize John Calipari is Arkansas’ coach?

Calipari coached Kentucky to four Final Fours in 2011, 2012, 2014 and 2015. He also led UMass and Memphis to the Final Four in 1996 and 2008 respectively; those appearances were later vacated.

And your most famous coach and the university engaged in a very public war.

quote:

---

Arkansas fired Hall of Fame coach Nolan Richardson on March 1, 2002, primarily due to escalating tensions, a public meltdown, and his inflammatory remarks daring the university to buy out his contract. Following a losing season and strained relations, Richardson stated, “If they go ahead and pay me money, they can take the job tomorrow,” after a Feb 23, 2002, game

.

There were also reports of physical abuse by Richardson, old school Bob Knight coaching that didn’t even fly in the 90’s.

quote:

---

Richardson was known for his high-pressure style, but faced criticism regarding his treatment of staff and players during heated moments, including alleged physical incidents in practices

---

And then he sued the school for racism. He was way ahead of his time.

quote:

---

Richardson sued in federal court, alleging racial discrimination and violation of his free-speech rights, arguing he was held to a higher standard than white counterparts, specifically mentioning football coach Houston Nutt.

---

Arkansas fans should sit this one out.
