No, they won't.

See Leach v. Texas Tech University

I thought every coach after Leach got their University to waive sovereign immunity in the contract?

Yep. There it is.

I hope every one of you retarded motherfuckers (who said the legal process matters and that Beard's actual guilt matters and that CDC/Texas would never react quickly) read this letter twice. And fuck you.

 

Get help. Seriously. There is something wrong with you. This is absolute aggy "yay we just hired the great Petrino" levels of dumb.

Ooof. Yeah. Minton did Beard no favors with this letter. How can anyone be so dense?...

You didn't read UT's letter. Bless your heart. Go give it another try. We're waiting. 

 

...oh. That's how.

I've already expressed my opinion that he arguably did not if he did not do the "conduct" that led to the charge, but obviously most people disagree.  My guess is it is enough to get into court, but it will depend on the judge.

you mean that his conduct of dressing up in a prison uniform and telling the judge he didn't choke his wife and how much to get out of here isn't unbecoming for the head basketball coach of UT? Weird, because I'm pretty sure any layperson thinks that is unbecoming behavior even if it was a Halloween costume and joke and not real life.

A US Congresswoman had to resign because SHE got revenge porn'd by an ex. 

At the end of the day, nudes/bad PR/mugshots are going to piss off your employer, whether it's a University, your voters or the corporation who signs your paychecks.

Yes this is what happened here too. She got revenge porn’d.

what if beard resigned and then the university was like aha you are sorry so we'll let you stay and that was the REAL test that Beard failed?

Beard's Kobayashi Maru.

He should have cheated.

If they are basing his termination on the "unbecoming" portion and not the charged with a felony portion, it is definitely going to court, which is my point.  I think Beard has enough to at least get a trial, including discovery, which I imagine both sides would prefer to avoid.

that line read like he pissed off some major decision makers badly..

Or perhaps he thought he was golden once she officially recanted her initial story.

If she ever gets to being his wife, then he has even more bad judgment than I thought.

The sad thing is he's going to need her to continue recanting the story in order to land his next gig.

Goodbye GIF

I was extremely confident that Texas would win a National Championship under Beard. This has been a continuous kick in the balls for the past 3 weeks. Fuck Beard for not being able to control himself and keep his hands off his woman. CDC has shown the ability to make awesome hires and Texas is a fantastic job, we will get our guy eventually.

What CB and his attorney are failing to grasp is that he may be innocent of beating his wife but he's not innocent of embarrassing the university.  This sucks.  

He was in a physical fight with a woman which ended in a 2 am call to 911. 

Speaking of which. Wonder what that call sounded like and who got to hear it.

I kind of find it humorous that UT gave him a couple of hours to think about resigning...knowing full well there was no way in hell he would (if he resigns, there is no suing UT later for not paying him).

It's almost as if the UT attorneys were bored with the lack of competition on the other side of the table and decided to have some fun with it.  "Hey, let's offer him the chance to resign....bwahahahahaha".

I believe the Texas Legislature must waive SI.  I don't know if they did that here, but I doubt it.  My understanding on getting around SI is to get a non-State of Texas entity to guaranty the agreement.  Many alums would happily do that to get a big name coach.

Please explain to me how any part of this situation is not unbecoming?

I doubt seriously A&M can just walk away from Jimbo’s contract.

Meh, pictures of Captain Caveman handing out fake bills in Whataburger bags to football players was all over the news. UT survived.

Strange how this UT prof plead guilty to his domestic abuse felony of strangling his gf and kept his UT job anyway:

He kept his job because no one knows who he is.  His crime didn't make the national news.  For that matter, did it even make the local news except for the school newspaper?

Beard's incident made national news.

That's the difference.

 

Edit to add:  I'm not defending it.  There shouldn't be separate rules in incidents of domestic violence.  I'm just stating why he wasn't fired and Beard was.

Kind of curious about the part of Minton's letter referring to CDC assurance that he thought Beard was innocent.  Wonder what kind of documentation they have on that?

Reminds me of Patterson telling recruits Brown was staying.  Except I believe that happened. 

I don't believe for a second that Del Conte told Texas players that Beard would be fine. I'm sure the Texas legal department had a gag order on all personnel, if not an actual rag inserted into their mouths.

If UT is going to stay out of court, they are going to have to prove they win even assuming the facts are as Beard alleges.  So assuming that he alleges that he is totally innocent and never did anything physical, then what is the conduct unbecoming?  Being falsely accused of a crime and then being falsely imprisoned for that crime?

 

Obviously that is probably not what happened, but if UT is going to avoid a trial altogether, it's difficult to do on a loose standard like "conduct unbecoming."

Well, unless the State of Texas effectively waived SI, it can.  I suspect some very rich ATM alums happily backstopped the contract.  They (unwisely) thought they had a national championship locked up.

You have a very clear misunderstanding of what's going on here. His innocence or guilt is immaterial. Getting arrested is more than enough cause for UT to fire him. Full stop, end of story.

None of this matters. He was arrested and charged. End of story.

Yep - those morality/public image type clauses basically give the University an out for bad behavior.

Even if they legally can, I doubt they would.  A&M got Jimbo because they were willing to offer more guaranteed years.  If coaches know those guarantees are not worth anything, it will be difficult to get the same level of coach.

 

It doesn't matter as much for Tech, because Tech is generally not looking to hire that quality of coach, so the guarantee matters less.

You joke, but there's an outside shot he could return as the head coach years from now if he had resigned, showed contrition, and carried on his life as a model human. Having failed to do so, he lost even the remotest possibility of that coming to be.

I guess we'll see if Beard ends up suing.  My bet is it is not thrown out immediately, but obviously I am in the minority.

In addition to my post above, there's this.
