  1. Why can't it be both
  2. Could see y'all being 6-1 when you roll into Lubbock.
  3. Beard has to be the only coach Texas has ever fired for cause, isn't he? I guess Herman might have gotten there had he been able to stick around for longer.
  4. Some of the idiots that post in the basketball forum would beg to disagree 😉
  5. I know, I'm just fucking around. Good for him if he makes it.
  6. Well, I guess he has owned everyone by being 3rd string behind a guy scrambled eggs for brains and a draft bust.
  7. That video is great lol Long, but worth it imo
  8. I'm not offering a morality judgement on the situation here, I'm simply saying that no state institution is paying anyone that they fire for cause except in the most extreme of circumstances. That's just how shit works in this state. I don't agree with the concept of sovereign immunity, but it's what we have. I also don't necessarily disagree with that the Tech higher ups handled the firing of Leach very poorly. I think if it happened today, none of it would have happened the way it did. The university President at the time despised Leach, was looking for any reason to fire him, and pressured the AD and Kent Hance to go through with it, using the testimony of the James kid. I did think at the time it was very telling, or at least interesting, that Adam James remained on the team and was seemingly supported by the current players, but not necessarily all of the other coaches.
  9. I mean it would be the smart thing for Texas to do. No shot the AD would want to pay what Beard had left on his contract after he was terminated for cause. That's just how these things work. You can act like a little bitch about it if you want, I guess, but that doesn't change anything! Literally any state employer would do the same thing, doesn't matter if it's Tech, Texas, or any other public institution.

  12. Texas would 100% have done the same thing if Beard had gone through with his suit. Going to need to see a citation on exactly how Tech would have lost that lawsuit. The players and most of the coaches were backing up James, not Leach, and likely would have testified against him had it come to that.
  13. This is just bullshit. He was fired for cause, and the cause given was perfectly valid, even if the James' are pricks. The way he treated Adam James would be and was considered unacceptable by any measure. Should Texas have to pay Chris Beard just because he never ended up getting convicted in a court of law? Come on.
  14. It's Twitch.tv but if you're a Nazi and/or pedophile and/or just generally fucked up like this guy
  15. We never gave a fuck about this, and neither did the British. It was always strategic. (I agree with you, just making a note of that)
  16. Ok this is absolutely unforgivable. Being friends with that guy should get you deported.
  17. I was generally in favor until Netanyahu's [2nd] government. If they want to actually behave like an ally, stop interfering in our elections, stop doing apartheid/genocide/whatever other war crimes you can name, stop brazenly and illegally stealing Palestinian land and homes, I'm all for treating them like one. If they stopped doing that shit, they would find out really quickly how amenable their neighbors actually are to having normalized relations. If they don't, and they lose our support, they will find out really quickly just how alone they have made themselves in the world.
  18. Tortillafans.com doesn't need to exist because everyone loves tortillas. You know who didn't like tortillas? Hitler. That's who.
  19. This was like 20 years ago too, I'm sure he hasn't gotten any better.
  20. You need to lighten up, lmao, you're not special. At least, not in the way you think. Holy fuck I hope you don't have any children.
