*checks thread*

Yep. It seems to be that part of the cycle, alright.

He's the best basketball coach OM has ever had. They will be good as long as he's there.

Beard will be at WVU as soon as Huggins retires which could be after next year
What I had heard before this OM coaching job went down
He was going to go to WVa as an assistant next year and take over for Huggins in 2 years

Texas >>> Ole Miss. He?s about to find out how uncompetitive they are in basketball. He might get Andy Kennedy results. That doesn?t scare me because we got serious about trying to compete again.

And Jans might be the best coach State ever had... Beard could flame out like so many "hot" coaches.

Are you really saying he and AK are equals?

I love our coach. Both teams have outstanding coaches. Not sure why state fans have a problem admitting what's the entire college basketball world's option - beard is really good

I like our coach, but I don't see how you can say he's better at this point. Jans certainly is good though

Jans is two for two vs OM! Can't do better!o

And we don't know why you get so amped up at every single up-and-coming coach.

Also... No mention of my new signature?!? Thumbs down... LOL

Haha, just noticed it. Figure you coulda found something more damning by me than that; I've said much dumber things than that

ETA... I wouldn't consider beard and up-and-coming coach. This will be his 9th year in div 1, and his 12th year as a HC

A guy on SEC Radio this morning said Beard ain't outta woods yet with the DV incident. Although his girlfriend dropped the charges the DA still might opt to prosecute. DV laws have changed a lot over the last ten years. He was absolutely stunned ole miss hired him.

If he gets Andy Kennedy results then he would have done a pretty good job. I'm betting he doesn't come close to getting the same results before he leaves. People forget that AK had several pretty good years at OM. & Andy is winning 23-25 per year since he left. Screenshot this & I'll ban myself if I'm wrong. I predict it's gonna be a circus up there for a few years bc it's gonna be very hard to recruit players with his record & he dang sure won't ever have a 1/4 of the talent he had at Tech or Texas.

Ole Miss has the best law school in Lafayette County so I'm sure they fully vetted him.***
