Lol, Tech fans would revolt if he came back. However, he left in such a shady way it would not surprise me if he screwed over Ole Miss.

Deal has been signed

Schovanec and Hocutt would crawl on hands and knees to Austin if they thought they can get Beard back.
And I would not blame them if they did. He's worth it.

Ole Miss should negotiate from a position of strength now while it is their chance to do so. Why settle for a few great seasons when you can build an elite program? Make it hard for him to leave while he is desperate and needs the chance.

Yes and the IHL will do whatever they can do bring attention to the state. Right or wrong, UM, State, and USM should be doing everything they can to break away from the IHL. There is no reason that someone from State or USM should have a say in who UM hires much less JSU, Alcorn, and Valley. State should feel the same way.

No, Tech does not want him. He is a wife beater, and Texas made the right move dismissing him. Tech does not want a known woman beater associated with the school. Some schools don't care I guess.

The biggest "positive" I have with IHL (and they can be a pain in the arse and make things take longer than necessary) is that they carry the weight of all public universities to the legislature. The HBCUs would have dried up years ago without the representation of IHL. Ayer's took care of that for the longest but The W and Delta State would have floundered. If each school had its own BODs and did their own lobbying it would be Ole Miss, State and the rest toss a bone or two.

No other state is doing this. They receive their large portion of state funding. There is no reason that Ole Miss and State should suffer athletically or academically due to having the same requirements and low standards of the other public universities in Mississippi

Just to add, Delta State and the W would’ve probably been fine without the IHL, as well as JSU and Alcorn. MS Valley is the only one that would have truly been hurt.

I feel the same about LSU but it is there.

Correct. UAB, UTEP, etc. not funding the entire state’s HBCU’s. It’s asinine for Ole Miss and State to expect to share revenue and funds with these schools.
