Joke's on him.  We let Shaka hang around for 6 years without winning a single tournament game.

So Chris Ogden, eh?  More shocking than Beard, honestly.

Nah.  He was failing at UTA.

He knows Texas recruiting, he'll make a fine assistant.  and his wife is really cute. 

No fire Chris Beard thread yet....surly is slipping

Sounds too much like Bernard.

Yeah, it was an attempt at humor because, like HEB, United Supermarkets is never open...why should their arena be?  Being nicer than the Erwin Center is a pretty low bar.  

Never open?  Wtf you talking about?

Is HEB even open, bro?  Do you even know bro?  

Good, because I have something at 11:00

HEB is way the fuck better than United.  I've lived( and worked) in markets with both.

I would hope the Moody center would be slightly better than an arena that is almost 23 years old.

Hard to argue with the hire. I’ll admit I was intrigued by Royal Ivey but you can’t reasonably pass on Beard.

Beard would not have been my first choice,  but I'm fine with it and am somewhat gruntled. Not a sure thing, but those are rare. I feel better about this hire than I did at the time we hired Shaka, Strong, Herman, or Sark. We're certainly much better off today than we were a month ago and it's not my money, so I don't give a fuck.

We have rules here, asshole.

I can't get over the contrast.  Shaka just gave us six years with 0 tourney wins, and got extended.  Beard has never LOST a first-round tourney game!????  There can be no doubt, this is incredibly good.  Assuming he keeps up his streak of never losing a first round tourney game, he will be here until he wants to leave, probably 15-20 years.  

We owe Abilene Christian far more than a fruit basket, for sure.  

The irony of Beard leaving on 4/1 has not been lost on Tech students who heard him preach from day 1 his "4:1" mantra.  That being the ratio of mental to physical toughness required to succeed.

What's with the jacket? It's 75 degrees outside. Idiot. Send him back to Tech.

No band?!

We tried to get the aggy band in since they are the best in Texas, but they were booked for Jimbo's recruiting ranch.

Evie Mae's is good barbecue and that's pretty funny.

Dumb, but funny.

Did anyone mention that that TT basketball strength coach isn’t on their website anymore either?

I’ll hang up and listen....

I can't believe what passes for sports writing these days.

 

"Last week, Texas lost head coach Shaka Smart to Marquette. That left the program with a massive hole to fill, but it found a way to land its top target."

We "lost" him the way you lose some piece of fucking gum stuck to your shoe. And the only "hole" that's of concern is the sinkhole of a roster he left behind.

Filling in for Shaka is not exactly a massive endeavor. 

Our program was a massive hole under Shaka.

Let's be classy about this. I am sure part of the reason Beard didn't want a counteroffer was because he wanted to return to his alma mater. Tech may not have as much resources as Texas but they were able to pull together enough to have more success than us in basketball. Have to respect that.

Mnnnn…aight.

This sounds promising, but I need confirmation from a source I've heard of.  Not saying this guy is wrong, but I don't know how credible they are:
