Looks like Coach Underwood’s public ripping of his players, their mothers and everything they stand for is working wonders.

And they've been playing without Mosley. Pretty good start for the former MUBB Grad Assistant.

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

They couldn't have checked the weather forecast and gotten in town a day early?

Harder to do when you don’t fly charter.

Iowa went from 27 to 60 in NET overnight. Arizona State 22 to 50. Both good results for MU considering they were both in our "tier".

Top 25 teams to go down this week (so far):

#6 Virginia (to #22 Miami)
#14 Duke (to Wake Forest)
#15 Mississippi St. (to Drake)
#24 Marquette (to Providence)
#21 Virginia Tech (to Boston College)
#25 Arizona State (to San Francisco)

The NET is as volatile  as the stock market.

Dollar amount Beard paid his fiance?

Must be a lot. If I read her statement correctly, she is claiming the police lied about the choking. That is not a simple retraction.
     "Chris did not strangle me, and I told that to law enforcement that evening."

[WhiteTrash]

UPSET ALERT:

Knowing Scoops affinity for Owls, Kennesaw State up 23-19 late 1H over IU.

[tower912]

Hoosiers without two starters.  Lost their PG for the rest of the year.  Jackson-Davis held out until conference play.

[GB Warrior]

Beard's fiancé saw the $ign

I believe she’s now claiming the choking was self-defense and she was the instigator.

This unfortunately is not an uncommon response.  Money may be involved but more times than often it is not. It can be very hard to leave an abusive relationship, especially one that is this public. There's also a chance that it was a false allegation but given the details released,  that seems unlikely.

I remember  a case a few years where a university expelled a football player for beating (and I believe strangling) his girlfriend.  After the expulsion the GF came out and said that the university railroaded the BF and that she told them that nothing happened. The university publicly invited both parties to sign waivers to allow them to release the investigation report to the public so they could prove their allegations. Neither took the offer.

Agreed.  But I'm leaning towards money being involved in some form or another.

Texas went from a coach whose team choked on the court to a coach who literally choked off the court. (Allegedly.)

If Texas fires Beard, you have to make the call if you’re Marquette

The bolded, unfortunately, is correct. I'll leave it to the psychologists to explain the reasons for this phenomenon. Women in an abusive relationship often not only keep coming back but also insist on blaming themselves. Police dread having to go to a home on a "domestic" call, knowing that the warring couple often will unite briefly just to scream at them.

I'm still hoping that Beard will be fired and really do not be proven right on my earlier statement in this thread that Texas and Beard will put this in their rearview mirror. It looks like it will play out just as I feared it would. Crap!

One call, that’s all.

why? Why hope Beard is fired? If the lady bs’d, Beard should get smoked? Scoop jumps to convict quickly, it seems.  If Beard is an abuser, then yes, can him. But why hope for it?
