Has he paid his penance yet? Can you imagine the things he could do with Woody’s budget?

Pay the man now! Don’t **** this up IU.
He’s winning at Ole Miss. enough said.
Look at his resume and watch how his teams play.
Screw that. Hire him. Feelings are why are in the shape we are in now. Hire Beard immediatly.
I actually think Pam would be cool with it. Her bed-wetting detractors, not so much.
Maybe. But hiring a guy that made a mistake and promised not to it again didn't work out. I want a coach with no baggage and there is no need to have ties to what used to be IU basketball.
gator,
I nominated you in a different post for having the best pre season prediction on this board. You deserve an award for stating just before the season started that we would be lucky to win 20 games with Woodson on the bench in spite of a soft schedule. Props.
Yep......squeaky-clean irrelevence is the way to go.
I didn't say any of those things. There are plenty of coaches that can win at IU without a history of cheating or being arrested. Grow up.
Pete needs to supply the $ and STAY OUT OF THE HIRING PROCESS!!! It is Scott’s job and he is the best at it. I’m so tired of involvement outside of the AD — we’ve had Presidents, Trustees, and donors screwing shit up for 25 years.
Would you have taken Coach K from Duke? You do realize he had baggage too......right? Painter has baggage. I think I'm sufficiently grown up. These aren't saints we are dealing with.....they are egos who are driven to succeed.
The only thing we can do is plan for the future based on what we know currently no matter how much we wish things were different. You deserve props no matter how little you like it.
I'd go after Pearl and have him get the ship righted and then bring in a young talent behind him.
Yonkman. He is CEO of Cook Medical and leads the Hoosiers for Good collective (the collective Cooks donates through.
Fans and the entire country are sick of this stuff. The woman said she lied. Hire the damn man.

If this type of charge was dropped in Austin it was rightfully dropped.Fans and the entire country are sick of this stuff. The woman said she lied. Hire the damn man.

It would seem there would have been full scrutiny in Austin. It’s hard to read the full article with all the freaking ads but everyone should read it all before making judgments.
The charges were dismissed because the victim wouldn't cooperate. She reported to police that he strangled her from behind, hit her, and bit her. When police arrived, the bite marks and bruising were visible. Without the witness cooperating, there was not enough evidence to get a conviction so the AD dismissed charges.
IMO, her original story is likely the truth.
Beard's fiancee retracts allegation he choked her
The fiancee of suspended Texas coach Chris Beard said Friday that Beard did not strangle her and was acting in self-defense from her.
And yet, the police said the injuries were consistent with the initial report.
She decided it was probably better to say she lied than her husband lose his very lucrative career. Case closed.
