Ole Miss looking to hire Beard for MBB
- Thread starter CCUIrmo
- Start date
Yep. If they make this move, they will in the NCAAT in short order.
Besides, the incident at Texas with his fiancee was a nothing burger. Charges were dropped but he was fired anyway because....?
lol...how uninformed are you? He was never charged with anything.
"Trew later released a statement on Dec. 23 in which she denied telling police that Beard choked her and said she "initiated a physical struggle" with Beard. On Feb. 15, the charges were dropped after Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza reviewed the evidence and took into account Trew's wishes not to prosecute Beard."

Former Texas coach Chris Beard has emerged as the leading candidate for the men's basketball job at Ole Miss, sources told ESPN.

Translation: they had an argument, she was ticked and overreacted and made false claims to police. When she came to her senses, she realized she was out of her mind and dropped the charges.
I'd hire Ted Bundy to be head basketball coach if he a) won lots of games & contended regularly for SEC titles & deep NCAA runs, & b) was alive.
"Charges were dropped" would indicate he was charged. It may have been "nothing" but he was definitely charged.lol...how uninformed are you? He was never charged with anything.

I would never watch a Carolina game again if such a person were hired.
You obviously prefer gritty participation. I prefer wins.
The charges were dropped, so it never came to fruition in court. Hence, he was not charged.
From his accuser:
Trew later claimed that Beard was acting in self-defense and that he never strangled her, stating "As Chris' fiancé and biggest supporter, I apologize for the role I played in this unfortunate event. I realize that my frustration, when breaking his glasses, initiated a physical struggle between Chris and myself. Chris did not strangle me, and I told that to law enforcement that evening. Chris has stated that he was acting in self-defense, and I do not refute that. I do not believe Chris was trying to intentionally harm me in any way. It was never my intent to have him arrested or prosecuted.
So she admits to initiating it the altercation and admits that he was acting in self-defense.
He wasn't convicted. He was charged.

The Austin Police Department issued this release Monday afternoon regarding Beard's arrest: "On December 12, 2022, at approximately 12:15 a.m., the Austin Police Department (APD) received a 9-1-1 call for a disturbance in the 1900 block of Vista Lane. The caller reported the disturbance was no longer ongoing and one of the individuals had left the house. APD officers responded and located a woman who stated she had been assaulted and strangled by Christopher Michael Beard. Beard was booked into Travis County Jail. He is charged with Assault by Strangulation/Suffocation - Family Violence, a third degree felony."
Orlol...how uninformed are you? He was never charged with anything.

He really did do it. She filed, he begged, promised, threatened her that not only are you ruining my life but you are ruining yours
lol
This one has "emotional woman" written all over it. She picked a fight, probably over something stupid like him not hanging up the dish towel. He probably dismissed as what it was...something stupid...not realizing she was about to go nuts. She got ticked that he didn't respect her opinion and escalated things by getting physical and breaking his glasses. He naturally defended himself. As the fight ended, she was still ticked that he didn't take the dish towel situation seriously and thought "I'll show him" and called the police. Only after he was arrested and fired did she come to her senses and realized she was being an over-emotional woman. Maybe it took the impartial 3rd party district attorney looking at the evidence and say "ummmm, are you sure you wanna more forward with this?" to make her realize she had gone full on nuts. Finally she retracted all her accusations.
So, yeah, she's nuts.
They will have their hands full with Beard and Freeze.
Freakin' Ole Miss can likely lure in a coach that took freakin' Texas Tech to the national championship game. We get.............................................Lamont Paris.
We would NEVER make a move like that. Too many precious low-information snowflake fans.
I'd get rid of dawn if it meant a relevant mens team.
"Charges were dropped but he wasnt charged." People will make completely ridiculous comments to defend their position no matter how wrong they are.
To be fair, both sides will.
"The charges were dropped" can be seen as proof nothing happened to go along with "he was charged" is seen as proof that something did.
In the court of law, he is innocent. The court of public opinion will be split between two camps that are convinced they are right and the other side is foolish.
My apologies for mixing up terminology. Yes, he was charged. Being charged means nothing. If you're married, your wife could call the cops and accuse you of domestic abuse and bring charges if she wanted. In this case, that's what happened with his fiancee. However, as I view it, when the accuser decides they no longer want to press charges and admits the whole thing was their fault and and that the defendant was acting in self defense and when the DA says there was insufficient evidence, the whole things is negated. It's as if it never happened.
The problem is, you have a certain set of ultra-low information fans who think that someone being charged equates to guilt. I mean, you have some morons who believe he was actually found guilty of something.
Cry me a river! You and half cocked need to get together and give each other a hug.
What problem do you have with the facts I presented?
Which facts? You are making a prediction for next year and presenting it as fact? As I stated before you are all over the place. You are the same guy that posted an article last week about northerners in the South that you admitted you didn't bother to read the article before posting. All over the place for sure.
I have no idea if he did anything or not but many times a wife or girlfriend will " change her mind" to avoid criminal prosecution. In the end, he did not face a trial so he is not guilty in the eyes of the law. Just dont say "he wasnt charged" when you say he was charged in the exact same post.
Nobody on this forum knows what happened behind closed doors. Regardless, some Gamecock fans have made it clear that they have a "win-at-all-costs" attitude.
Beard is a top 5 coach. I would be glad to have him working here.
Glad you, 18 and half-cocked are not our AD. Beard's also a woman beater. I can't support a grown man that hits a woman regardless of circumstances. Don't give me the BS that charges were dropped.
Sexist comment. It's actually quite common for battered women to withdraw charges, blame themselves, cover for and eventually reconcile with their batterer--often multiple times.-
Sexist, insensitive among other things. I hope he doesn't have daughters (or sons).
Sounds like the Clemson football player who reportedly beat his girlfriend and she recanted and they dropped the charges.
If you do not have the cooperation of the "victim" no one will continue the case and will drop charges. Simple rule.
We so know she was bruised and we do have a police report. Maybe she bruised herself but very, very unlikely. As we all know, dropped doesn't equal innocent.
There is a reason Texas dumped him. Do you think they would dump him if they thought or knew he was innocent? They had all the facts.
This "win at all costs" and "no matter what" attitude gives the impression that Satan would be acceptable if he is a winner.
Winning a ball game is not worth selling your soul for.
I do want to win but there are standards and qualifications with that desire and some things are not acceptable.
There are winning coaches who are like minded.
