Beamer officially unveils 7 staffers with videos

Could be, but Mike Peterson can fill most of that gap - FLA native, star at UF under Steve Spurrier, spent 6 years playing for Jacksonville (and another 4 at ATL) in the pros.

I am not familiar with the his younger brother, but apparently he is also a foosball player - Adrian Peterson. Plays RB I think. He also has a cousin from South Carolina (Sumter) that played in the NFL - Freddie Solomon. Who had a lot to do with why we are not in the ACC now.

That's cool I didn't realize they were related

So lots of connections to Florida - and lots of NFL ties, which the recruits love.

Very good points!

I'll choose to stay positive until I have a reason not to be, but I get your point.

My job has conditioned me to be critical of information so it always sets off alarms for me when someone or some source is invariably positive.

Not being critical of you at all hope I did not come across that way.   Just saying I think a positive piece on the program is a good thing right now and recruits may read that piece to hear more about the guys recruiting them, so I will take it.  I do think most of the guys on this staff have shown they know what they are doing and I hope this article proves accurate.

Oh I didn't feel criticized at all. If I had it would have also been alright. I also completely agree with you that positive press is a good thing. I only questioned the accuracy. However, I share your hope that it is an underestimate of the staff's ability.

I believe that we do have some really strong recruiters on the new staff. The flip side is that we also had strong recruiters under Muschamp, and Muschamp himself had that whole ice and Eskimo thing going on. 

Beamer comes across well and I think that he can match Muschamp's success with recruiting. Muschamp's problems were developing the guys and his old-school schemes. Muschamp seemed incapable of meddling on both sides of the ball, or coming up with newer and better approaches than what UGA did in the 1990s. And his in-game decision making was poor.

I don't actually think we had that great of success recruiting with CWM. Certainly, he also didn't do a great job developing the talent that he did have. There is minimal difference in the recruiting rankings the five years before CWM and the five years that he was here. When we won, we recruited much better than CWM ever did.

I agree that Beamer comes across well. He says a lot of the right things. I hope that it pans out and I hope that we recruit better than we have the last five years. We will need to if we want to win.

True, talent was there but Chump pissed it away.

 
Anybody watching the Florida/Oklahoma game? I'm a little behind but Oklahoma's offense reminds me a lot of what we saw with Bobo this season. I seriously got deja vu on a couple of plays. Now I completely understand Coach Beamer's comment about Bobo running a very similar offense.

In the presser on Monday, CSB made a point of talking about how excited he was to integrate concepts of the Oklahoma system into the advanced run and pass schemes of CMB.

If this is what our offense is striving for under Beamer, I like it!

I am for all of the above.
