The rumor here in LV is that new UNLV coach Chris Beard might bolt and go to Texas Tech.  He was an assistant coach there for ten years and his three daughters live in Texas.  UNLV hoops is a dumpster fire right now!

Jason King ✔ ‎@JasonKingBR
Chris Beard is the leading candidate to replace Tubby Smith at Texas Tech, source told BR. Beard has $1 million buyout in his UNLV contract.
7:23 AM - 14 Apr 2016

So Beard's tenure at UNLV might not be much longer than Shaka's at MU....

Short list of HC candidates that pop for Texas Tech men's basketball:

Chris Beard - UNLV
Buzz Williams - Va Tech
Darvin Ham - ATL Hawks

Darvin Ham? Would be interesting to see a coach just dominate the kids at the TTU Midnight Madness dunk contest. Ham couldn't do much else, but he could throw down some nasty dunks. Like a better version of Trend Blackledge.

Reading this thread does remind me of one good thing about having a team not make the tourney.  You don't have these two types of posts from other schools' posters:

1) WE ARE INTERVIEWING YOUR COACH AND WE WILL TAKE HIM IF WE WANT.  NO COACH WANTS TO STAY AT MARQUETTE AND OUR SCHOOL IS BETTER.

2) DESPITE REPORTS THAT OUR SCHOOL IS INTERESTED IN YOUR COACH, YOUR COACH AND SCHOOL SUCKS AND WE HAVE NO INTEREST IN YOUR CRAPPY COACH.


If we make the tourney next season, expect one of both of these types of posts around this time next year.

Remind us again about the shoes about to drop - love it when you play "insider".

Funny thing is, you can't even get the rumor (Buzz to T Tech) right.

Anybody think Buzz will "listen" if TTU calls?  Since this year's carousel started spinning, he has "listened" to Ok State, Memphis, and TCU, depending on who you believe.

By winning at Minnesota and Texas Tech, he's proven he can win anywhere. He knows the recruiting areas. And the AAC is designed for an easy path. Plenty of patsies and only a few real contenders (but enough to annually build a resume).

I could easily see 25 wins becoming the norm at Memphis. Not the kind of hire that will electrify the fanbase, but he should win in mass quantities there.

I wouldn't sleep on the Memphis job, that's an underrated gig. I don't think Tubby is super exciting as a fan, but he'll win 20 games a year there. Memphis geographically is in an interesting spot in the college hoops world. Good local talent, yet close enough to the Midwest and South. If Penny joins as an assistant, interesting hire considering his local ties and obviously his name recognition.

New UNLV coach Chris Beard met with Texas Tech last night in Vegas; UNLV hopes issue 'resolved' Friday.

I don't know why he wouldn't take the TT job.  Interesting read from our local writer Ed Graney:

Exactly!  I've never heard of anything like this.  Beard sat in front of the UNLV regents for two hours while they debated whether or not to approve his contract!  The vote was 9-4 so four regents were talking against him!  Reminds me of MLB arbitration.

As I stated earlier...  UNLV hoops is currently a dumpster fire!  Would not be surprised if the AD loses her job.

He was an assistant there for 10 years and two of his three daughters were born in Lubbock.  To each their own.

If Beard ends up at Texas Tech that will be ridiculous.  He was announced as the UNLV head coach.  We are not just talking about rumors or a contract written up then a last minute decision not to sign.

Now coaches can even last one season before moving on?  I understand the regents thing but then why did he sign the contract?

To be sure that he'd be working somewhere this year.
