let rumors run wild. Why not just say that Oscar/Huggs were not happy and decided to part ways. It would stop a lot of this BS. Everyone will find out eventually when he enrolls in another school or signs an agent, etc. It is not just this case but others as well. It can't be to protect the individual because the rumors are usually more hurtful than the facts. Speculation is never a good thing IMO. Unless it is criminally related, be transparent.
