He even spoke in the direction of South Carolina football under Beamer. “Hard not to be a fan of @CoachSBeamer and what he’s building at @GamecockFB,” Nagy wrote. Others separated the speech from the success of the team, including UGASports.com reporter Dayne Young. “I have no clue if a Beamer-led Gamecocks team ever gets to nine or ten wins ... but it is refreshing to see the focus is seemingly beyond scoreboards and money,” Young wrote. “CFB needs more of that.” With this speech and the “Welcome Home: South Carolina Football” series streaming on ESPNU, the Gamecocks continue to build anticipation for the 2022 season
