Sounds like she got violent and he restrained her.

You just don't understand today's trial by media.
Definitely guilty unless he can come up with undeniable video evidence otherwise.

If you remove his time at UNO as he was in a **** show when they were going to move down after Katrina, his win percentage is .707. He's 45.

Again, this may have been a waste of time, but I've had time to waste today. I didn't include McCasland because I'm not sure we could and I figure we all know about him.

Marshall had a winning percentage of .700 at Winthrop and .732 at WSU. I would want our next coach to be in that zip code of wins, ideally.

Seven of the ones listed above are at or above .700 and another is just below at .686

The woman said Beard “choked me, threw me off the bed, bit me, bruises all over my leg, throwing me around, and going nuts,” per the affidavit. “I could not breathe,” she described later in the affidavit.

then later

His fiancée told police Beard had been mad at her and hadn’t been speaking to her. When she went to check in on him in their guest room, she found him sitting on the bed and twirling his reading glasses. She told police she became frustrated, took Beard’s glasses and broke them before returning to their bedroom.

She said Beard then came into their bedroom and was upset about his broken glasses, per the affidavit. She told police she offered to buy him a new pair before he allegedly slapped the glasses she was wearing off her face, according to court documents.

She tried finding her glasses and said she was thrown from the bed onto the floor, which injured her leg. She then said she was “attempting to gather her bearings because she was unable to see without her glasses” when Beard choked her with his arm for “probably like five seconds.”

His fiancée then said Beard threw her onto the bed and “moved his face within inches of her face” before letting go, per the affidavit. When the officer asked her what she thought made Beard stop, she said, “I don’t know, he just let go.”

When police interviewed Beard at their home, Beard said he had audio recordings of the incident that showed he wasn’t the “primary aggressor,” per court documents. When asked if he’d share those recordings with law enforcement, he declined.

Wow!! He didn't freakin' choke her! He put her crazy ass in a standing front headlock! And if her weak, psycho ass hadn't TAPPED OUT, she would have got corkscrew senton bombed from the TOP turnbuckle too! This is just good ol' fashioned Texas wrasslin.

Not sure it’s Texas wrasslin for two reasons: she is not his sister, and she did not end up pregnant

Check the comment history, I’ve always been lower than low on HCIB, everyone here floating “up and coming” coaches does not understand where this program is currently sitting…

we need to make a f*c*ing splash with our next hire. Pitino, Beard, Beilein, Jans (why not), hell, call Jim Calhoun… imperative to not miss.

IB will be here at least 1 more year after this season. It would be in our best interest if he finishes top 3 in the conference and builds this program up.

Yeah, with the attendance they are having they don't have any money to do anything.

Check my comment history. I must have posted one word “Jans” by itself on 30 or 40 posts during the “search” period.

But I would just as soon we admit the grievous and woke error and beg the person to come back who we are already paying to coach the team.

You’re too concentrated on the short term.
