In regards to taking Beard from Ole Miss, I see no reason why that would not happen if Arkansas were to have an opening. Muss is the 9th highest paid coach in the nation currently. Arkansas has shown it does not mind paying coach at a top 10 national level. Ole Miss isnt going to do that and has not done that historically. If Arkansas wants Beard and Beard wants to coach at Arkansas, I believe it would work out.



I said this in the opposite way about Dan Lanning coming to Arkansas but...

If Beard wouldn't leave Ole Miss for Arkansas then he's too dumb to coach here

You need guys like this to be the core of the be program with portal players coming and going.

Devo is too much of a head case to be this guy, but you need 3-4 developmental players for continuity and to help with the small things of the portal players coming, leading by example in practice, bringing the new guys up to speed of how things are done in the program.

Muss runs his program too much like a pro team, if they allowed mid-season trades/pick ups it could work, but in college you are stuck with your hand for the year and when you put together a shitty hand your stuck with the shitty hand like this year.

Both are 4-5 yr development type players and Muss wants/needs immediate impact. I don't think either is a huge loss, but they are the kinds of guys you used to help soldidy your roster with and they could become good starters by their Jr and Sr year.


That’s my point actually. We kept Pinion. He will never play here. At least meaningful minutes. Why give Ford’s spot to Battle or Ellis? Why give Dunning’s spot to Pinion? We need guys to remain in the program. Or else, you have a roster full of guys who have had absolutely no long term commitment and care for the program.

My point wasn’t they’d be starting, my point was those should have been the holdover developmental guys.

Beard makes 3.25 mil with 100k raises each year (MS only allows 4 year contracts)

Texas's part of his salary puts him at 5 mil per

SEC rankings
1. Cal - 8.5 mil
2. Barnes - 5.45 mil
3. Pearl 5.44 mil
4. Beard - 5 mil
5. Buzz - 4.1 mil
6. Muss - 4.1 mil (12th nationally)

* Going into this season based on quick search

If Arkansas can pay top dollar for a top coach they never shown that to be true...

If anyone is a real glutton for punishment, go back and scan through about the first 20 or so pages of this thread. Amazing how the wheels completely fell off based on pre-season expectations.

So, we'd have to pay Beard almost a million dollars more per year?

Hmmm!

300+ college basketball programs and being #9 on that list says otherwise.

I bet Brazil’s vaginitis will clear up by the next game as well.

No, we would likely have to pay Beard $6-7M. Worth it? Probably. No doubt we would pass and go bargain bin shopping for coaches.
