I’m fine with them naming the court after him. Right now is a horrible time to do it. Should have been done years ago. Not when his protege is on the verge of losing his job.
He’s still the coach who said things like
“I didn’t come over here on a slave ship so I expect to be treated differently”
He’s still the coach who sued the school for 8 million dollars on the basis that racism got him fired. A suit that he lost, but still painted the Universirty in a bad light
And he is still the coach that always claimed “The playing field wasn’t level, and that Houston was always treated better than him”
And he is still the hothead that said “If they pay me my money I’ll leave tomorrow”
And my fear is having to fire mike will lead to the opening of a lot of wounds that had somewhat healed.
It won’t be pretty in this age of SJW victim mentality for Mike and Nolan to be our screaming that racist Arkansas school ran poor Mike out of town.

I'm not fine with it.I was a big fan of his when he was hired because I wanted uptempo basketball like Houston ran with Phi Slamma Jamma.
I argued with folks for keeping him,wanting us to give him a chance for him to install his players.When he lost he said it was his fault and when he won he said it was his players who won.I liked the polka dots and the way he did things,even tough his daughter was dying.
But he changed after his success and the losses were no longer his.The game changed.
Eddie Sutton was about to be fired when he crawled to Kentucky,this wasn't a racial thing.Coaches get fired every year.
To make it what nolan made it is inexcusable to me,not because he isn't white,but because he trashed our program over his ego.
That's just my two cents,I hate it came to that.I was a Nolan fan..
