I don’t think we need to worry about that. I heard a former UT player talking on a radio show and it sounds like Nico’s dad was a major distraction to his son and the UT staff, etc. Apparently he’s been like this for as long as Nico’s been playing organized sports. No way Fran would put up with this guy. If he took Nico, he would insist on muzzling dad, which won’t happen.
This guy also said that dad was shopping Nico since the OSU game, something Hueppel told Lanning when he called. The situation came to a head when Nico followed his dad’s order, skipped practice, and ghosted the staff. Hueppel ended the relationship right there. Trust was lost. Dad did Nico no favors.
