Damn, this is a ringing endorsement for Beard from a pretty good source.

Pitino knows a thing or two about coaching.

Pitino endorses Beard

Beware of past KY coaches endorsing coaches for the IU job.

 

[Thcgh]

they were, but she was frightened enough for some moments to call the police.

think about your own marriage...that ever happen to you?

Or manipulative enough 🤷🏻‍♂️

 

[Thcgh]

Right. Indiana is going to listen to Rick Pitino for advise on hiring Chris Bears. Two outstanding men.

How long have you known Chris?

 

[brebelle3]

Have you heard anything or are you just trolling her?

A little bit of both, brother.

I was a varsity coach in Indiana for nearly 20 years, so I'll get a morsel or two now and then, but I don't know much. I overheard Romeo tell one of my players that he was going to IU well before he announced.

I will say this and it's probably mostly known already. I'm confident Beard wants or wanted the job. I have no idea whether IU is interested, but he is and has made it known.

I hope he gets it.

How many regionals did you win as a coach??

How many regionals did you win as a coach??

More than zero and less than 2. Never stayed anywhere long enough to reach the pinnacle.

I enjoyed immediately turning around dying programs more than going for a title.

He was charged. Not convicted.

Meh. Tomato...Tomoto

You could get pulled over, arrested and CHARGED with DUI. Only later to have those charges dismissed.

I mean since you were CHARGED, does rhat mean you're guilty?

 

[IUfanBorden]

Weird how Beard is tops on our fans lists but didn’t get a sniff from other Bluebloods. 😉 why is that?

How you know this? Did you sit in on the hiring process?

 

[Big Red Crimson Buffalo]

Sleaziest coach in the history of men's NCAAB b-ball. I hear his name and the 1st thing that pops to mind is him and the pool tale.
If Ricky boy is for it I'm against it. And the former coach of UK and UL wants a "great coach" at IU, really?

Nobody really cares about sleeze when it comes to athletics or coaches. Last night the announcers were all gushing over Kelvin Sampson. All this stuff in the world of sports goes away and people forget about because winning is all that matters. May not like it but it’s the truth. SMU was perhaps the dirtiest rule breakers in all of college sports and the only team to ever receive a death penalty. This year, they were in the college football playoff and nobody said shit. Because? It all blows away eventually.

 

[zeke4ahs]

Serious question for you, teach. What are you going to do when Beard is named coach?

Getting pretty smoky in my neck of the woods. And Cav isn't even here.

Not a thing because it’s not happeneing. Not the least bit concerned.

 

[zeke4ahs]

I'm well past caring about character at this point

I know, sadly many people here are.
