I was hoping WW would eventually be the coach there.

He’s already coaching Louisville and Indiana in addition to Ole Miss. I can’t imagine he can handle any more jobs. He’s not Lane Kiffin who is coaching at least half a dozen other teams.

He would have smoked it at Indiana. Ole Miss is the furthest thing for a Hoops school and he's still winning a decent level.

Just pure stupidity Hoosiers not to hire him.

Big Ten libbies would have had a conniption fit if Indiana hired him.

Beard probably got him a little Ole Miss blonde or three out on a Lake Sardis

He's waiting on Cal to retire from Arkansas in a few years.

From what,I've been seeing, they are already having TDS conniption fits. Elon would take a lot of heat off of Beard.

Once Beard gets a stranglehold on a situation, he doesn't want to let go.

When he gets the stranglehold is when he knows it’s time to move on.

Why don't we ask Lane Kiffin to answer that?

He’s making good money in a good place to live at a school with reasonable expectations.

It’s the Lane Kiffin path and while it’s tough to win in the SEC there are much worse gigs as long as they don’t expect championships and F4s every year like they would at Kentucky or UNC.

Look at what Oats has done at Bama, as long as you can get NIL money to compete you can win almost anywhere now.

Ole Miss has never had an AD care about basketball as much as Keith Carter. I'm not saying Beard won't leave for a better gig one day but the school that hires him is gonna have to pay for it.

NIL commitment seems to matter more than historical success. Not saying his suitors didn’t have it, but he has a really good salary and knows what he’s got from ole miss in a really strong basketball league.

It’s going to take the right situation and he can be picky. And his expectations at ole Miss are just be competitive and make the dance. Other places might have much higher/unrealistic expectations.
