you don’t know your Texas Basketball history. he’s not some random, unlikable coach. dan hurley, brad underwood, mock cronin, and plenty more all fit that bill. Scott Drew is public enemy no.1 here. he is hated; he is loathed; rick barnes would have punched scott drew in his nose on national tv if he could have gotten away with it. as far as texas hoops is concerned in 2025 he is the antichrist. just like nolan richardson was before you were born, scott drew is a non starter. 

So what?

I'm just trying to understand your line of thinking. You wanted to keep Chris Beard who beat up his fiance but Scott Drew is a non-starter because some fans dislike him?

if me telling you that he is the modern version of barry switzer and nolan richardson doesn’t get it through to you then nothing will. like i said, you don’t know your history, and you’re making an impossibly terrible suggestion here. notice the reaction you’re getting from the board.  you’ve already been told why he’s a non starter. you either get it or you don’t.

chris beard coming back would be wildly more popular than scott drew being the hire. if all you care about is winning and you don’t care about popularity then you want chris beard back, you don’t suggest scott fucking drew.

Brother, one beat his fiance up and the other is just unlikable. Give me a break.

Barnes hated Drew. This is why you hate him.

It's not going to stop Texas from hiring him if it's an option. I hate to tell you.

there’s nothing i love more than listening to some kid who knows fuck-all about history tell older generations why they feel the way they do. you do not know what you are talking about. this is not about me, or rick barnes. you started following this program when shaka was here. there’s a reason that every single long time UT Basketball fan who has posted on this subject has reacted with extremely strong language against your terrible idea. listen to your elders, and stop persisting with this terrible, terrible suggestion.

we couldn’t even recruit our own state for like 20 years because we refused to play the slimy games that scott drew was playing. generations of Texas HS talent who wouldn’t event take a visit to Austin because we refused to cheat like scott drew did, directly against us. but sure, let’s fucking hire him him now.

Texas “had to” fire chris beard and Texas “had to” hire RT because Texas has historically held itself to a higher standard than than many of the major sports programs we’ve recruited/played against, particularly in the south. scott drew comes from BAYLOR, the school of murder, murder cover ups, and roving bands of football playing serial rapists just terrorizing the campus, all in the name of BU Athletics. Baylor is the antithesis of Texas when it comes to ethical behavior, and nobody as covered in the baylor stink as scott drew is will ever be hired by Texas. i suppose you would have loved it Texas had hired kim mulkey too, huh? of course you would.

No, I know the history. I know the history of Barnes publicly calling out Drew's recruiting tactics and other nonsense. 

I simply don't give a shit about the history and I can guarantee CDC doesn't give a shit either.

In the last 5 years Baylor has finished #3, #2, #4, #16, #15 in Kenpom. 

Come the fuck on. He's a top 5 coach in college basketball.

CDC canned Beard immediately after the DV incident. He isn't hiring Scott Drew.

any booster who has made any real investment in Texas Basketball would laugh you out of the room if you suggested scott drew. nobody, and i mean nobody with any sway at Texas Basketball wants scott drew.

He's had a top 15ish caliber team in the last 5 seasons at fucking Baylor with a national title. But yeah, "he isn't even coaching good basketball right now." 

Literally one of the dumbest comments on this board I've ever read. The fact Drew even has Baylor where they are this year with all the injuries is only more indication of how damn good of a coach he is.

If we are looking for a coach after this season, you're going to be wrong. 

The Indiana boards are saying that Drew is very much interested because of problems with resources at Baylor. They have one of the largest NIL collectives in college basketball at Indiana. 

After Kentucky, Louisville, and now Indiana there is too much smoke that Drew is looking around. When there is a top 5ish coach in CBB right up the road looking at schools with better resources you have to be kidding yourself if you think "bad history" is going to stop Texas from engaging.

I've never said he's likeable or a great person.

We hired Herman and Beard both of which had pretty glaring issues before Texas. My point is that it's not going to stop Texas from hiring Drew if he's available.

You should offer a big bet. 

I don't know shit about shit, but you guaranteed CDC doesn't care about Drew's past shit, so he should be an easy choice for next up if the AD is willing to say "Fuck y'all" on a basketball hire.

I've seen CDC with some big money guys. He isn't going to step on his own dick for Scott fn Drew is my guess.

IU and KU die basketball... Not bleed, but die.

We kinda think about winning basketball.

And I do not argue the point that Drew can field a top team... But the people who didn't like him years ago still don't like him, and they still pay the bill.

What were those glaring issues?

Herman was a known alcoholic and everyone knew he was a major prick. There was a long discussion on this very board if he would even be able to pass a background check at Texas.

It was discussed on this board and the Tech boards about Beard loving to hit the college bars. Also, his issues with Randi were discussed way before he was even at Texas. The way this entire thing ended was far from a shocker. 

Somehow there are people that think we wouldn't hire Scott Drew.

You have multiple mainstays of this board telling you that Texas is not hiring this guy and you are still here fucking this chicken. Are you sitting on info that we are unaware of?

It's a bizarre hill to die on but if you feel that strongly then power to you. 

Like @Slacks said, put some dough on Drew to Texas. Otherwise quit trolling.

I would never bet on that because it's contingent on 1) Texas even having an opening. 2) Drew actually wanting to leave Baylor. 

It's hilarious to me that you think Texas wouldn't hire Drew when 3 of our last major hires in Sark, Herman, and Beard all had major issues in the past. But yeah, we aren't going to hire a guy like Drew. Don't dare go look at the past of our recent hire in men's swimming and diving but we are #1 in the nation for a reason. 

I'm not sitting on any info. I just know Texas wants to win and if a top 5ish coach is available they're going to hire him.

This tangent that you're going on is hilarious to all of us. Quit putting it back on me like I'm the one here operating off of the fucking map. 

I don't think CDC is even calling Drew. Drew is a piece of shit and a public Texas enemy. And like I already fucking told you his teams have burned out for 3 straight seasons and it's headed towards 4. Good for him he posts nice Kenpom rankings. Give him a sticker with glitter on it. 

Beard was a Texas grad. Herman was not a CDC hire. 

Quit fucking playing dude. You're making an ass of yourself.

Did Beard “beat up” his ol’ lady?

Or was Beard just trying to choke her out after she started a physical confrontation when she smacked him in the face and sent his glasses flying?

We are just going to agree to disagree. 

Bottom line, Texas wants to win. Whether Drew is a piece of shit and a public Texas enemy is not going to stop us from hiring him. Brother, we just hired a men's swimming and diving coach who admitted to sending sexually explicit texts to swimmers and has been accused multiple times of abusing swimmers. We hired him because he's damn good and guess what we're now #1 in the nation. 

Texas cares about winning. If you think being a "piece of shit" is going to stop us from hiring Drew you are kidding yourself.

Our football coach was fired for cause for being drunk at a public event. Texas fans seem to be the only base that gives a fuck about optics when it comes to the hiring and firing of coaches. When reality is today’s news is forgotten tomorrow in the media. Who gives a fuck if we were to hire Drew as long as he wins.

None of us have any clue if we would pursue Drew. We are all just speculating. Regardless, I wouldn't let groupthink change my opinion based on our history of hiring coaches.

everyone here except for you actually does know that we would never ever ever go after scott drew. we’ve tried to explain it to you, but you refuse to be moved even one inch off your position. you can tell yourself whatever you want, but you are in fact wrong. 

and fyi, scott drew doesn’t want to coach here either. the feeling is mutual.

Drew has never even done anything egregious which is the funny part. He's just a slimeball that's done a lot of unethical things in recruiting which has resulted in beating Texas a lot.

Maybe Texas should have cheated, was no reason not to. NCAA has no authority, even then 

 

Nobody gives a fuck about Bruce Pearls history with Auburn being top 3

Lol.

I was looking at the recruiting rankings for seniors earlier and saw this kid from Brenham SA who's nationally like top 25 and committed to Houston. 2nd ranked player in Texas.

My first thought was "I'm sure Kelvin Sampson didn't break any NCAA guidelines to recruit that kid"

You play that dirty-ass sleazeball game you're going to burn bridges.

Drew's bridges with Texas are scorched. It ain't happening.

Oh no we can't hire a guy that was unethical in recruiting. Derka is biased on this matter because Barnes hated Drew but one coach was fired while the other was on his way to winning a national title. 

This was my entire point. Drew hasn't even done anything egregious. He's just a slimeball that will do whatever it takes to win.

Holy shit.  Scott Drew?  He is the Bill McCartney of college basketball. A slimy recruiter dressed up in a christofascist package.  We aren’t touching that. And I don’t want that dweeb coaching my team anyway, even if he is some kind of Rain Man basketball genius.  Which he isn’t. Stop it.  Was an entertaining last page, though.
