Didn't Whitten squash the football hire with a questionable past?

An insider on the Rivals board said it had more to do with him still being under investigation and a potential lawsuit/NCAA hearing still looming.

Beard isn’t my first choice, but slamming him because his liquored girlfriend called the police and had him arrested and for domestic violence causing him to be charged as a criminal is b.s. The charges were investigated and DROPPED. He was punished for something he was not found guilty of by losing all that money and losing his job at a p4 school. Would Ole Miss hire him and pay him $3.4 million dollars + incentives if the charges were legitimate? Would parents let there kids play for him? When couples get drunk and fight this crap happens to common folks everyday. Just because he is a high profile individual that’s responsible for young men it’s under a magnifying glass. Again he’s is innocent of said charges. If someone is guilty of beating women I’d be the first person to burn them at the stake, trust me.

Beard will fail here just like Sampson did. Just like Beard did at Texas. 
 

There’s a reason no legit programs looked to hire either last year. Small-time miscreants that don’t have what it takes to win at a major program. 

Nobody is calling Sampson, not because of IU, but because there is literally zero reason for him to leave Houston... He's 69 years old and he's built a great program at Houston -- he has them competing for Titles every year. No reason for him to leave.

He’s been there 11 years. Nobody would hire him at a big job during that time. And he’s went to one FF, so I don’t know about all the title talk.

Serious question for the holier than thou crowd. If beard is hired will you quit watching and supporting IU out of principle? I would think morally you would have too if what you say holds any water.

I did it for Woodson... so, yeah, I could and would.

So much wrong with this

1) He was never found not guilty, that's not what it means when charges are dropped. In all honesty I would feel better about hiring Beard if he actually went to trial and was found not guilty.

2) The charges were dropped because the victim recanted her story and refused to cooperate. Good luck prosecuting a case where you have an uncredible star witness. 

3) He was fired FOR cause at Texas and didn't even put up a fight to try and recoup nearly $25 million (that speaks volumes)

Beard is now my #1 choice, forget the rest and I hope we try to get him.

I got the game day wrong, it is Saturday. I've seen others get it wrong, too. As adamant fans (all of us on here), to get the game day wrong for a ranked home game in February is quite the indictment on the program's standing. I'm at the point personally that if my kids ask me to do something fun, rather than watch IU, I will gladly go to Chuck E Cheese - because watching IU fires me up and quite literally ruins my day (and next day).

Sure...Houston was the first school that came calling. But he's built a winning program, he's older, he's a future Hall of Famer..there''s no reason for him to leave. Houston is his spot...and if you don't think they're competing for Titles every year...I'm not sure what to tell you. They got another dominant team this year too. Ranked #5...and Houston of all places.

Sooo... you don't know if she punched him first? 

Who cares who hit first because that doesn't justify beating her up.

I won’t argue the failure of Beard but the university of Mississippi is not what I would call small time

I'm checking out for a while. This place is not well today. DM's are open, I'll check them later. 

The way people are acting is probably the reason Beard might not be a good idea. The next coach is supposed to bring us together not divide us further. 

Wasn't reuniting the fan base one of Woodson's accolades and/or assigned tasks? More failure. He need to be fired!

Sounds like you might need a Diet Coke.
