Which schools do you think are the biggest threats of stealing away Chris Beard from Texas Tech?
Chris Beard has developed into a hot commodity in a short time with Texas Tech back in the Sweet 16. Probably the biggest perceived threat would be Texas, which still has a basketball coach named Shaka Smart and is headed to the NIT semifinals. Beard is a Texas grad and the theory is that he might have an interest in returning to Austin.
