Hotd@mn, imagine going from the Seigel Center to that. Wonder where we'd be if Shaka had stayed.
Still grousing about his poor offensive schemesHotd@mn, imagine going from the Seigel Center to that. Wonder where we'd be if Shaka had stayed.
I don't think so. Shaka's buyout is 10.5 million dollars. Last year, Beard signed an extension with Texas Tech that would require any school from the B12 to pay Texas Tech 6 million dollars. That means just to get Beard in the door, Texas would have to pay 16.5 million dollars. However, Beard's contract at Texas Tech was for six years and 27.45 million dollars, which made him one of the highest paid coaches in the country. Texas would have to offer 4.5 million just to match Tech, but to get him to leave, you'd probably have to get into the 5-6 million dollar range.CDC’s going to go all in on Chris Beard, with a backup plan of Chris Beard. He is a native son, so they have hope that a couple million dollars per year and Austin vs Lubbock comparison will seal the deal.
I know of a winning coach in the Dayton area who would be a great fit.I don't think so. Shaka's buyout is 10.5 million dollars.

I know Texas has money, but they're still paying their former football coach, and Tom Herman is on the hot seat right now. Throw in the $300 million dollars they're spending on their new basketball arena, and I just don't think it's likely that they'll go this route.
John Beilein resigned as the Cavs coach yesterday, and so he's probably the front runner for the Texas job. I could see them also courting Billy Donovan as well.

Winning is important ....
Are you really thinking UCF and Liberty? that is an odd thought. Dawkins and McKay are in great standing with those programs. Why did you mention those two schools?So Shaka is out this year or next, what would be a school that would take him in?
I could see a
UCF type of school, or Liberty type.
Not Liberty in the sense that I don't think Shaka would fit in there culturally, but as in a school that has money, is ambitious, and has a lot more money than it has pedigree and very hungry to make a splash.
Would anyone else guess he needs to spend a year as an analyst to wash some of the stink off before he coaches again?
"I thought the crowd was phenomenal tonight."
