(Thursday morning) "We're hearing that Beard has cleaned out his office and booked a flight to Austin and scheduled a PC for Friday morning. No idea if this is related to the Texas head coaching position. Stay tuned."

This sounds like a done deal, the fact that nothing has been said denying it from Tech should be proof enough.

This could mean anything.

Sounds like something someone would say if they knew he was staying.  It doesn't logistically make sense.

Let’s hope so. My sources on this (2) aren’t as good as on Meyer. 

Mine is pretty close to the situation, as of Saturday it was basically done. But until an announcement is made that means Jack shit. That’s a lot of time to get your best offer together that perhaps Texas wouldn’t match.

Listened to the EGAT podcast with Scipio and Kevin Dunn. This may be already common knowledge on IT, but Paul says he hears Beard’s agent is making a ton of demands, like every NCAAT appearance gets him an extra year extended on the contract. BMD source saying “it’s Beard’s job to lose and he’s really trying to.”  But it does sound like Beard or bust.

This is in Beard's existing Tech contract, too.

Hmmm.  Not a fan of exorbitant demands.  I hope we have a spine and keep some semblance of dignity.  I’d like a winning coach, but don’t lose the farm in exchange.

Where’s your deer lease and are you Caddox’s friend’s friend?

So if we don't make the tournament, does he lose a year?

Paul (Scipio) suggested the counter to that provision is losing two years with a missed appearance, not that his agent would ever go for that.

how about a lifetime extension for a national championship
