He runs a motion offense with a focus on tough defense and has won the ACC 3 out of the last 5 years. He owns the ACC in versus record against every school except Duke and is known as the landlord of the ACC. There's a lot of good coaches in the ACC. Before Bennett got there, Virginia had a record of 250-230 over the prior twenty years. Still better than us, but they weren't a power house or blue blood school. Also, he's been there for 9 years and makes $2.5 million a year.

Shows that a non blue blood can afford to keep an elite coach long term if he really wants to be there. Just happens they also run a similar offense to Beard with same defensive identity and showed rapid turnaround.

tl;dr Hopefully Beard becomes the landlord of Big 12 basketball with Tech for a long time.
