I haven't read anything that explicitly states that "Haley liked Cassel". What I have read is that Weis threw his hands up on Cassel, so Haley took over the job of developing Cassel. Then, when Cassel improved, Weis got the credit which irritated Haley. Haley admires and respects his father. I highly doubt that he would "like" Cassel as a player when his father called him trash on sticks.

People tried to make these black & white declarations out of Charles Robinson's tweets about Haley and Weis, where Haley must have been for Cassel and Weis was against him.
Except Robinson never said any of that. As you said, FAX, the story was that Haley and Weis disagreed on how to develop Cassel and Haley took over those duties. Robinson never said that Haley loved Cassel. Likewise, he never said that Weis didn't like Cassel, and he specifically clarified that in subsequent tweets. He pointed out that if Weis didn't like Cassel then he wouldn't have come here and/or the team wouldn't have hired him.
