Texas Tech fans have every right to be upset.
It’s not often the greatest coach in program history leaves to take the job at your biggest rival school. But this is a unique circumstance with Beard having graduated from Texas and always having an affinity for Austin.
The way I see it, we have two routes we can take at this point:
- Relentlessly roast Beard for doing the worst possible thing he could do
- Take the high road and thank him for leading the program to incredible heights
Personally, I’ll go for option two - at least until he starts badmouthing Texas Tech.
