April 1, 20214 yr He knows Texas recruiting, he'll make a fine assistant. and his wife is really cute.

April 1, 20214 yr 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.

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.
April 1, 20214 yr Beard got his Masters from Abilene Christian too...what an amazing turn of events. Tech fans complaining about a graduate returning to his alma mater seems hollow... https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2938028-abilene-christian-president-says-win-over-texas-earned-school-close-to-120m

April 1, 20214 yr 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.
April 1, 20214 yr 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.

April 1, 20214 yr Did anyone mention that that TT basketball strength coach isn’t on their website anymore either? I’ll hang up and listen....
April 1, 20214 yr 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.

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.
