Rumors are Texas boosters pushed him out...
I don't know why Beard would leave for either one of those schools. I know, the almighty dollar. But from a pure basketball standpoint, what has either one of those schools done lately?
They are schools that think they are a lot better than what they are just because of the name on their jerseys...similar to Notre Dame in football.

Hoping DePaul will also make a good hire. Ultimately I'd rather see Big East programs flourish then some of these other conferences
I agree the better the Big East is the better it is for every team in the conference especially when comes to NCAA seeding and quad 1 and 2 games. I think DePaul goes hard after Porter Moser now. I think they throw a lot of money at him and I think he takes it. He’s a Chicago guy and that’s the only reason he didn’t take the job here.
