The "It's like he wasn't even there" line seemed much more important to me then the show went in to. I feel like that was the subtle start of a major plot arc involving something going seriously wrong with Ozpin, but that's just me.

If it wasn't the start of something, I don't even see the need for that line existing. I know that the writing in Volume One wasn't the best, but if that qoute isn't explored further, that'd be a major fault... it just seemed like foreshadowing. I, personally, just think he was distracted. He had other things on his mind, possibly far more important things, so he was basically giving his the commencement speech on autopilot.
