The University of Texas suspended the head basketball coach until further notice after he was arrested on a felony family violence charge. How long does it take for someone to notice something? The legal proceedings around this case could take more than a year to conclude, according to a report by the sports network.
The Austin American-Statesman quoted Minton as saying that Beard was not guilty of the charges. He should not have been taken into custody. He should be immediately released and all charges dropped. It isn't possible.
Beard's career is still going strong. If the facts are accurate, it shouldn't be a problem. When it comes to college basketball, there are a different set of rules for men like Beard.
Texas Tech won the national championship in Beard's first year as head coach. It was Beard's Red Raiders that were a few possessions away from winning a national title in the program's first ever Final Four. Beard has become one of the hottest college basketball players in the country. He was hired by UT to bring their program back to glory. It was a success. The Longhorns were on a roll and were ranked 7th. Texas was able to hold on to beat Rice in overtime on Monday night without Beard as the Longhorns look to improve on their 8-1 record on Sunday when they play at home.
This isn't about Texas basketball. History shows that the current head coach at Texas won't have to quit anytime soon.
The month of March is home to college basketball. America's attention span can only be kept by one sport. College basketball is a sport in which the head coach has a lot of power. Fans and athletic directors drink a lot if they are good and white. They will be able to remember how beneficial a coach is when it comes to winning games if they are given another chance.
Here is a list of college basketball head coaches who were able to keep their jobs even after a scandal.
Gard fired a staff member for using the N-word after one of the team's few Black players transferred. He followed that up by starting a fight with Juwan Howard and the Michigan team after the game. The man is still employed.
The Bluejays head coach did his best reenactment of a slave owner last year, and he must have been sleeping. We need to stay together. Both feet are needed. Everyone needs to stay on the plantation. He told his team that he couldn't have anyone leave. The school quickly put the situation behind them after suspending him for a short time. The man is still employed.
We found out in 2020 that the Shockers coach is a maniac, after it was alleged that he choked one of his assistants, punched a player, and body-slammed another. Marshall didn't get fired despite an investigation. He got a contract settlement of $8.25 million instead of quitting.
Last year, a video of the head coach from when he was arrested for a drunk driving was released. Few was drunk and annoyed, and acted as if the police were not watching him. Few refused to do field sobriety tests as he claimed they were not objective. He was suspended for a few games after he pled guilty to a drunk driving charge. The man is still employed.
Will Wade was caught on an FBI wiretap talking about how he paid his players. He went to work even though people heard it. LSU fired Wade after NCAA violations came down against him and his program, in a move that suggested that LSU would ignore federal evidence until the NCAA punished the school. Don't be surprised when he gets a job again.
Earlier this week it was announced that Sean Miller wasn't going to be reprimanded by the NCAA for what happened when he was at Arizona. The FBI investigated the sport and it was claimed that Miller paid Ayton out of his own pocket. Miller has never paid players. Miller is at the helm of the Musketeers.
Since he was an assistant coach at Hawaii in the 1970s, Pitino has had allegations and violations against him. He continues to be a coach.
Beard's job status at Texas will be announced in the near future. The details and facts of this case will be revealed as soon as possible. We don't know a lot about this story. The conclusion to this story is the same as a TylerPerry production.
Beard is still a head coach. His talent and whiteness will save him in the long run. What's the reason? Someone will hire him because they care more about his suffocating defenses than the fact that he tried to kill his fiancée.
