I'm sure poor Chris will struggle on his $3.25M, but let's not lose sight of the fact that the cost of living in Oxford is only 65% that in Austin, and housing in particular is only 37% that in Austin.

I find that very hard to believe. That he would contact Tech when he's already in a major conference at a mid level program in that conference. Which is the same as Tech. Especially in a conference that no one knows what will happen to in the coming years with realignment It didn't take him anytime to land this job. This is nothing more than Tech trying to show how "moral" they are. Which means nothing in the end.

There are people who full on hate Beard within the program and fan base respectively.  There is virtually no scenario where reconciliation could occur.  The powers that be 1) have to be aware of the vitriol and 2) might at least partially feel that same disdain towards OJ.

And to Vic, it’s not a move of virtue, but rather recognizing dipshit burned his bridges already.  People ain’t signing up for that horseshit again.

Well to be clear, you don't have any credibility or knowledge of this unless you're beard himself. It's really not clear why you're so confident he didn't, but you do you.

 

The tech insider who broke this news has been spot on before I believe, although our tech posters can help verify that.

He's not a realistic person. That's not his strength. He's not introspective. He's not truthful, frankly. He's an optimist who thinks by sheer will he can transform a situation. There are pros and cons to this. But if he can keep his personal demons at bay, it makes him an extremely compelling basketball coach. 

I saw recently where Dana Altman criticized the Oregon fan base for only having 3500 fans in the seats for their NIT loss. Which is what you see coaches do all the time. I remember when Mack Brown criticized the Texas fan base for not being passionate enough to fill up DKR-Memorial. That is pretty much never effective. Compare that to Beard who constantly talks about how amazing the fans are, whether he's at Texas Tech, Texas, or Seminole Junior College. That's not realistic, especially at the beginning. But that's how you motivate people. He talks about being a Monday night program. He talks about every one of his players being a future pro. He talks about every opponent being an NCAA team. That's what he does. Being realistic is simply not part of his DNA. I don't understand why it should even be an expectation.

If Beard believed he could re-sell himself to the Tech fanbase, he may actually check some boxes on the psychopathy checklist. That's fucking pathological.

To be honest, I think there are a lot of head coaches at all levels who could check some boxes on the psychopathy checklist. I know there are a lot of CEOs. When winning is the primary measurement, it's going to attract people somewhere on the psychopathy spectrum. 

I've always said that life/work balance is overrated in a head coach of a team I root for. I just don't know of any coaching legends who are famed for their life/work balance. 

[shadow_operative 15931]

i once again find myself in disagreement with the crowd. i'll start by saying that firing beard was not only the right thing to do, it was the only choice for any school that's actually an institution of higher learning. he was charged with felony DV, and then instead of showing contrition and swearing it will never happen again, beard came in hot defending himself and downplaying it all. he had to be fired.

that said, this thread title is inaccurate and until i see actual proof that beard is some sort of abuser then i'm going to stay away from the majority opinion here on what an abusive POS beard is. because to this point he's not.

randi trew didn't live in fear of chris beard. beard wasn't terrorizing her on a daily basis, getting home late from a bad day, knocking back a 12 pack and then tossing her around. that's not the case at all. they're simply a shitty, toxic couple who got into a physical fight. i've known a whole bunch of crazy couples like that, and that's all it really is: two psychos who bring out the worst in each other, and who have a codependent relationship and need to split. not only is that not an abusive one-way relationship, but if beard were the woman and trew were the man then beard would be the victim here. that's a fact. she is the provocateur, over and over and over. she is the antagonist. he is the one who tried to get away and leave it alone. she is the one who attacked him. if anyone in this relationship is the abuser, it's trew.

i know that everyone here has gotten swept up in being overly virtuous in condemning chris beard as a human being, but get real; think about the actual dynamics of that relationship. until something new comes out and says otherwise, chris beard is not a woman abuser, he's a fucking retard who stayed in a toxic, codependent relationship so long that it blew up his entire life, and Texas Basketball and its fans are arguably the biggest casualties here. it sucks.

in summation, chris beard:

•asshole

•stubborn

•manic

•terrible judgment with women 

•probably drinks too much

•deserved to be fired 

•fucked over Texas and its fans 

•not a "woman abuser". he'd literally be the victim if he was the woman

•fuck him

You are giving him a lot of benefit of the doubt here man and it's kinda weird and gross. You think he's a huge piece of shit and even though it's pretty widely well known that he's a woman abuser at this point you continue to say "its cool cuz she sucks too".

You know what I've never done? I've never fucking hit a woman who was being toxic or a dick to me. Not bad enough to get the cops called or otherwise, because I'm not an abuser of women. 

I'm not trying to put this on you as a person, but if you think that's acceptable or remotely a possibility or has happened to you, then you are also a woman abuser which makes sense why you would defend the behavior that we at this point all know happened just not the intricate details.

Serious question: do you know what coercive control is? I'm guessing you don't, because if you did, you would never make a such an ignorant sweeping statement like this. I had never heard the term until like 6-7 years ago. I'm far from an expert but I've listened to experts talk about it.

Educate yourself on coercive control. You may not know or understand some of your own friends as well as you think you do. That goes for Chris Beard's closest friends and confidantes as well. They may not know the reality of the situation or understand him as well as they think they do. For example: if your friend told you his girlfriend got drunk and embarassed him at a party, the reality could be that he's an abusive, controlling narcissist who flips out if his girlfriend has more than two drinks. And if you don't know how to spot the signs of coercive control, you may have no idea what is really going on behind closed doors.  I cringed at the NYC rumors you and others posted, because if there's any "truth" to said rumors, I'd be skeptical as hell of them if they originated with Beard or his camp.

The only facts we know are what's in the police report. And we know (I think?) that Trew called the police.  Why do you think the vast majority of DV victims call police? Because they're  scared.  Not because they're a vindictive harpy looking to ruin their partner's life.

She may have lived in fear of Chris Beard. She may have not. You don't know. I don't know. She called police. It's possible whtever he did that night scared the shit out of her.

Unless you want to disclose non-public information that demonstrates he is an abuser or have concrete information from his arrest that confirms it, then no it is not widely known that he is an abuser.

It’s been discussed ad nauseam that the arrest information made public was not sufficient enough to confirm what was true and what was not true from the incident. 

I think most believe it to be true.

she has a long, public history of being a loud, aggressive, abusive drunk. she herself admits that she started the physical confrontation with beard after he tried to get away from her. and the folks in lubbock have been telling us about what an abusive POS she is for years. she got fired from her job as a HS volleyball coach for being abusive. she's the one with the history of being an abusive drunk, not him. you're actually being wildly sexist here by giving her such undue benefit of the doubt simply because she's a woman.

[shadow_operative 15931]

as a matter of fact, the very reason they were fighting on the night when Chris Beard got arrested was because of her drunken an abusive antics in New York. when it comes to chris beard vs randi trew, one of these people has a looooong history of being a shameless alcoholic with an angry, abusive streak (which was on display at MSG as trew kept drunkenly running her mouth at opposing teams' fans and parents), and the other one doesn't. so how we do judge them? the man is the abuser and the woman is the victim, end of story. that's what we've got going on here. stop it.

I guess I missed the part where Beard called the cops and then Randi got hauled off to jail.

The reality is that none of us know exactly what happed that night. We all have assumptions that are influenced by our own biases.

The facts are that Randi called the cops and Beard went to jail.  Sure, he is innocent until proven guilty in the eyes of the law.  But I don't have to abide by those rules when deciding how I feel about him. At a minimum, in my mind he is guilty of bad judgement for not de-escalating the situation and removing himself physically (as the stronger party). That is the bare minimum, which is enough to get him fired from his dream job.

But... It is quite possible that what actually happened is way worse than that.  Maybe he did choke her. Maybe he bit her trying to hurt her. Maybe he has been mentally abusing her for years.  Maybe this has happened 10 times and only now she decided to call the police because she was afraid he might seriously hurt her. Maybe all of the above is true and he paid her off to recant her story.  

In summary... F him. He le let this program down and I'm embarrassed that he is an alumni of this school.

I agree that the conflicting information between the arrest report, her subsequent statements, and his statements put this firmly in the "we will never know exactly what happened" category.  Ultimately, coaching (or even working) at University of Texas is a privilege and Chris Beard went far enough out of bounds to lose that privilege, even if he might not have broken the law (or at least didn't get prosecuted).  Bye.

[Pam Cummings 9409]

Did he really ask Tech if they'd have him back? God damn man. He must just be really used to dealing with people who have no self respect or pride. He seems not used to people telling him to go fuck himself the way we did.

 

And we all bag Randi, but he probably seeks that type of person out in a partner. A person who is co dependent who he can treat like absolute shit.
