OK, I'll bite: who in your view is the questionable hire?I don't think anyone could have done much better with this group of hires considering the situation.
There is only one questionable hire in the bunch. For now, looks like Shane has done well.
OC...not on the same level of cred as DC, ST, WR. But that's just on paper. I'm sure there are reasons for it.OK, I'll bite: who in your view is the questionable hire?
I agree.OC...not on the same level of cred as DC, ST, WR. But that's just on paper. I'm sure there are reasons for it.
I agree too... I’m optimistic that Shane knows something. But I’ve been optimistic and burned a few times too.I agree.
I also hope we're wrong for questioning it.
If there’s a hole, this is where it is, and this is a big deal. But I’m hoping that Coach Beamer knows something.OC...not on the same level of cred as DC, ST, WR. But that's just on paper. I'm sure there are reasons for it.
Well not every OC has to be a mastermind. I would not be surprised if Shane already has his playbook and between his other coaches, they can construct the offense.If there’s a hole, this is where it is, and this is a big deal. But I’m hoping that Coach Beamer knows something.
I knew I would get hated on for this. And like I said, I hope Beamer knows something. But I think we do need a play calling mastermind. I’m optimistic. I’m excited to see what we have. But I’ve been a Gamecock fan for a long time.Well not every OC has to be a mastermind.

Regardless of who calls the play, the players still have to execute it and making the right calls at the LOS can be just as important as the play call.
Yea...that would be great, but we don't know the inside on this.But I think we do need a play calling mastermind.
I wouldn’t call Jim’s stating a difference of opinion “hating” on you. He wasn’t rude or disrespectful.I knew I would get hated on for this. And like I said, I hope Beamer knows something.

Is the staff complete? I thought we still needed one more. I'm probably wrong.I wouldn’t call Jim’s stating a difference of opinion “hating” on you. He wasn’t rude or disrespectful.
I too, believe Coach Beamer’s OC pick was deliberate and well thought out. Within 24 hours of Bobo leaving, we had a new OC. It wasn’t just coincidence, Beamer had wanted him, but was going with Bobo to have some continuity, and save money. Beamer took his time compiling his staff. Every move appeared to be precisely planned, so I have no reason to think otherwise about the OC. Every one of these guys have been successful, and seem to be hungry to prove their abilities. They may fall flat on their faces, but I seriously doubt it.
I think the last piece was OL coach, which has now been filled by a Marshall coach, Adkins.Is the staff complete? I thought we still needed one more. I'm probably wrong.
I missed that becoming official. ThanksI think the last piece was OL coach, which has now been filled by a Marshall coach, Adkins.
Good stuff! He's a guy that needed USC to restart start his career.For those that may need a lit reassurance
I do hope all of the coaches are awesome. I do bleed garnet & black.I wouldn’t call Jim’s stating a difference of opinion “hating” on you. He wasn’t rude or disrespectful.
