    How are you gonna question the age of this guy's source because its from March, claiming the numbers change so this source isnt reliable, but then cite something from April 17th to give an idea on our NIL budget when our biggest piece wasn't even committed yet? Little more consistency please...

    ...relationship and I wasn't there. The whole point in the other posters original comment was Brad has proven to be a more successful basketball coach than Chris Beard. I'm saying thats simply not true, but Brad has been a great ambassador and we'll see if he can eventually get over the hump in...

    So you dont agree with the list! So stop citing it! Facts are in Beard's last 8 seasons he won more games than Underwood and went to a championship in 19' and got further than Underwood last year with lesser programs. See what happens when you debate based on your feelings?! You fall on your...

    He got to the championship in 2019! Since you wanna reference the 7 win season where he was fired, 3 of his last 7 coaching seasons resulted in 3 trips to the second weekend including an elight 8 and a trip to the championship. Don't talk to me about willful ignorance, you're the definition. You...

    Funny people are so critical of sports outlets until it works in their favor. I refuse to let my allegiances get in the way of being logical. Let me ask you this, do you think Underwood is better or worse than Calipari? Because if you're deferring to CBS as the expert, you have to admit all 18...

    ...including the 2nd weekend last year with Ole fricken Miss. Self defense isn't a crime. Those are things you conveniently left out. If you think Beard is a mediocre basketball coach, then you need to take the orange and blue goggles off and reconsider your stance on Brad. But I think they're...

    ...elite 8, and oh yea had to vacate all his wins in 2 of his 3 years at Stephen Austin. As well as the fact that the allegations against Chris Beard were dropped and apparently he was acting in self defense. So im not willing to hold that against him as a testament to poor character...

    ...wise with better results at lesser programs. Anybody advocating for them weren't necessarily wrong, its not like Underwood has taken us to our ultimate goal yet, time will tell. Although I wouldn't want Sean Miller's slimy hands anywhere near our program, Chris Beard is as good as it gets.
