If he is retained, it's going to be a tough sell to the mommas of a lot of recruits. They aren't going to want ther sons to play for someone with that type of accusation.

If the victim is a woman and pictures surface that show bruising or other evidence that what is alleged actuslly happened, even if the charges are reduced or dropped, Texas cant retain him under any circumstances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it takes anywhere near that much. If the victim was anything other than a grown man who was the first to act violently (against Beard or others), then Beard is gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drroogh Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 3 hours ago, IUFLA said: Beard's attorney, Perry Minton, told the Austin American-Statesman that Beard "is 100% innocent of these charges." "He should never have been arrested," Minton told the paper. "The complainant wants him released immediately and all charges dismissed. It is truly inconceivable." I had a friend at Purdue(I know) , anyway he was riding a bike on campus and a guy hit him. Guy got out and started yelling obsenities about the damage to his car and drove off. When he reported the incident to campus police they highly suggested he didn't press charges. Turns out the guy was a football player. And this was in the early 70's. As already mentioned dropping the charges is not uncommon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's true why has there now been a restraining order put out? There is a protective order active until at least Feb. 10, 2023, the terms of which prevent Beard from being within 200 yards of the alleged victim or the residence at which the 9-1-1 call was made. Beard is also not allowed to carry a firearm at this time. Additionally, while Beard is permitted to communicate with the complainant in the case, he's strictly prohibited from doing so in any type of threatening or intimidating manner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 So a little clarity... This order, which will be in effect until Feb. 10, 2023, prohibits Beard from: communicating with her or members of her household or family in a threatening or harassing manner; going within 200 yards of 1901 Vista Lane; and carrying a firearm or ammunition. He is also required to stay at least 200 yards away from the alleged victim. https://www.chron.com/sports/college/article/texas-basketball-chris-beard-arrest-17647946.php So he CAN communicate with her, just can't be within 200 yards of her physically...

He probably won't go to jail, I wouldn't be surprised if he's never even charged, but he will lose his job if a woman called the police because he was choking her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I heard from people close to the program was Perry started a fight and nearly killed a guy at a frat party. He was suspended but Davis didn't boot him.

IUFLA Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 Texas law... How can I request an Emergency Protective Order? An emergency protective order (EPO) is available only at the time of an arrest for a crime involving family violence or sexual assault. It is temporary and emergency in nature and cannot be extended. The EPO can be requested in the following ways: By the victim of the alleged family violence offense; By a guardian of the victim; By an attorney representing the state; and/or By a peace officer. The court may also issue the order on its own motion and, in certain circumstances, the order will be mandated by law 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a different world in some neighborhoods is all I'm saying. Our former Coach has made a heck of a career out of getting/going after kids in difficult circumstances, etc....I'm telling you for a narrow group of recruits and their parents it plays. Shoot Bobby Bowden made a career out of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
