Pure speculation time - Beard leaves UNLV at the alter and goes to Tech. At that point Larry Eustachy will be heading to be the next coach of UNLV. CSU is unhappy with him, he's unhappy with them, it allows them a clean divorce.
Oh, but what could go so right. That's a perfect fit. And I think Goose is right when he says he's tired of CSU and they're tired of him. He's been there for five years. That's a long time for him to stay in any one place. Plus, the co-eds in Ft Collins aren't as nice as the ones in Vegas.Eustachy working in Vegas, what could go wrong there!
Techs counteroffer was $2.8 mm a year. I'd bet the initial offer was at least the $2.65 they were paying Pastner.Tubby got $15.45 MM over 5 years from Memphis.
So Texas Tech is about to be open. Their fans seem to want to get Beard who just signed with UNLV.
Paid him double what he would have made at UNLVA little confusing. I would have thought the UNLV job was better than Tech. Suppose Tech must have rolled out the Brinks truck.

Don't forget UNLV didn't disclose to him their APR issues, only having 5 visits to fill 9 spots and the **** show Board of Regents approval meeting for his contract.That, plus he has connections to Tech and a family two hours away.
But the Brinks truck had a lot to do with it.

Opens up the New Mexico State job, which isn't as attractive as it used to be with the WAC pretty much collapsed.
They'll get an assistant from somewhere...that's a pretty good situation for a first time head coach-you're the big dog in a bad league. Watch the search at UNC with them "parting ways" with BJ Hill. I know Hill, and he's not the type to go get a program in NCAA trouble. Tad is still a very popular guy up there, and them going after Prioleau or Rohn would be popular with those fans.
First thing I thought of is that Pri or Rohn may get that job. Both are more than ready to be HCs.
I agree, but that's not the right situation for either of our guys to leave here for. Full disclosure-I did attempt to walk on up there before Tad arrived, and I did get to know (and like) BJ Hill. They'll make some sort of effort to come after one or both of our guys. Tad is still a God up there. That said, that's an awful job right now. I would hate to see Pri or Rohn leave CU to go there, and I don't think either will. My guess (I don't have anything to back this up) is they'll wind up with Culver from UCCS (he's got unc ties) or Derrick Clark from Metro. I don't see them being able to lure any assistant of note.
DC sucks
his recruiting has hit the ****... the players hate him nd he throws hissy fits on the sideline at his players in gameIs this relative to Dunlap's success, or because of a bad year, or does it really seem like he'll never lead MSU to another tournament run? The middle years of his six-year tenure look great. What's happened since?
