The Beard extension: should we start to worry?

Man oh man. Coming off of a National Championship appearance, Kirby Hocutt publicly stated that he was going to give Chris Beard some sort of raise. He said it would happen sooner rather than later and a week and a half later, it hasn’t happened. Could this be just a product of both guys being busy, or is there a bigger problem underlying?

On the Kirby Hocutt Show, Texas Tech deputy athletic director Tony Hernandez said the contract extension negotiations with Chris Beard are ongoing but the goal and expectation is that he will be at Texas Tech for a long time.
