Why would he want to come back to work for the people who fired him with cause at the lowest point of his life?

The only people entertaining that thought are those living in fantasy land.

The people who fired him won’t want him back regardless.

So who is our next basketball coach?

Anyone but Gus Fring would be a step in the right direction, imo.

Hash you are very opinionated. Beard doesn’t drink . You don’t know what happened. All charges were dismissed.

Thank you Coach for your fair observation

His girlfriend realized her meal ticket was about to expire if she didn't recant. So, she did. Why is anybody even considering "if" Beard came back? He's not. He was the perfect choice at the time, what hapenned hapenned and here we are.

I was just wondering has anyone heard if they are still together?

Yes, the guy who publicly said in a press conference that everyone on the team was giving up something for 4 months as a sacrifice for the season and he was giving up beer. I'm sure that guy doesn't drink. You nailed it.

This guy? I don't get the reference.

Beard is a friend. Not sure he wants any new job badly or were that came from.

Letting him go for next to nothing and zero charges just once again shows Horns aren't serious about men.s basketball.  CDC got holier than thou and sent set the program back 5 years atleast.

Terry is a decent assistant coach for a top 25 team but damn sure not a head coach. He did to finish out the season with Beard's players and scheme. 

Only hope is to hire the coach of whatever smaller program lights it up in a couple weeks.

Beard is an idiot that got into a drunken altercation at 2am with his fiancé and put his hands on her. Your friend deserves Ole Miss.

Maybe poor ol' Texas can get a random high school coach? 

Pretty coincidental that Worthy is arrested and immediately exonerated for charges almost identical to those of Beard on the exact day Beard’s replacement was effectively fired.

Quinn Snyder, Sean Miller, Royal Ivey 

Those would be my betting favorites. This opinion is fairly informed by someone very close to the epicenter of Texas Hoops.

Buzz Williams

Would Quinn Snyder be a better hire than Jay Wright?

Exactly. Xavier’s charges dismissed as well. Higher than nightly people jump to conclusions and won’t have their mind altered even though facts dictate they should.

I like Miller a lot. Our half court offensive problems would disappear over night.

Snyder seems like a retread hire that has never been great anywhere he has been.

Ivey would likley get the basketball alums on board, but I feel wary of giving his 1st head coaching job in this meat grinder of a conference.

Based on the opinion everyone deserves a second chance.  How about Chris Beard ?

There’s very little doubt about what Beard did unless you’re willfully blind to it. Much more ambiguity remains regarding the Worthy case.

I’m sure he is super eager to come back and work for the people who fired him with cause at the lowest point of his life.

You mean when he fired himself and jeopardized his career with his actions.

I would have hoped by now that everyone would have gotten past suggesting Beard, Wright, Self, Donovan, and a few others who obviously are not coming to Austin. 

Here’s another difference between Worthy and Beard IF Worthy did any of what was alleged. Beard was in a job where his role was to be a leader of young men. As a player or a parent, I wouldn’t put much stock in anything he told me in the locker room or on the recruiting trail after that incident. He forfeited the right to tell players how to be good men and hurt his ability to do his job. Worthy on the other hand is a 21 year old kid in no position of leadership.
