‘Mr. Bieber Haircut’: Mississippi State QB coach jabs Nick Fitzgerald’s style

Mississippi State quarterback Nick Fitzgerald has a not-so-nice new nickname you might be hearing this season — and he got it from his position coach.

During a lighthearted Twitter exchange late Wednesday night, new Mississippi State quarterback coach Brett Elliott called Fitzgerald “Mr. Bieber Haircut” after the quarterback appeared to come to the defense of the often-criticized pop singer.

The original topic: A video including Chance the Rapper, with Bieber along for the production as well. Elliott didn’t approve.

No! @chancetherapper Justin Bieber!? You are better than that. https://t.co/SPvAv07fvx
