To think Texas Tech had its best coach since Mike Leach on its bench and it let Chris Beard leave because it was too afraid to stand up to the biggest hypocrite bully college basketball will ever know.
Beard has the Red Raiders in the Final Four, which is what Tech thought Bobby Knight would do when it hired the former Indiana coach in 2001.
It is Chris Beard, not Bob Knight, who is proving a Texas basketball team can win on a national level.
While Tech celebrates its Final Four coach, remember it went through three more coaches before it offered its former assistant this job.
