Sooooooo, who we got replacing Beamer?

[Cockinheimer]

You have to remember, we are going to be cheap like the losers we are and wait until January 1st to fire him, which means that all the decent coaching candidates will be gone. Got to make sure you pick a tight ends coach somewhere.

 

[uscjunkie]

Won't matter 5 years from now.

 

[cocean]

Cignetti all tha way

 

[Cockofdawn]

either Curly, Larry or moe would be an improvement!!

 

[SuperCock99]

I’m not letting millions of dollars to answer that. But I would done than the last two hires for free.

 

[Rhode Island Dork]

Dude at Wake Forest.

 

[Dabo's Weenie]

Shawn Elliott

 

[Deathstar]

Nobody is getting fired. Beamer does not have the stones to fire a coach anyway. We will have to suffer with this clown posse coaching staff for another two years because Tanner gave this joke of a HBC a $27 million buyout. We are a laughing stock again.

 

[Urbanrooster77]

I'd offer Brian Kelly $5M a year. Tell him to perfect his sc accent.

 

[Forkcock]

Shawn Elliott

No. He may be a bigger fraud than Beamer. Strictly coaching. It's honestly 50/50

He couldn't win at Notre Dame or LSU, two places with more resources and tradition than SC can even dream of.

 

[maybee1]

Jason Eck.

Nobody good will come here, start looking at old retired coaches past their prime.

 

[Legal_fowl]

Jake Dickert or Mike Shanahan

 

[bayrooster]

Nobody good would come to Indiana, Vandy, or Kentucky, but what they got is better than what we got. Missouri's coach makes Beamer look like a putz.

 

[HWGcock]

Not sure it even matters anymore. We are who we are.

 

[SouthernBelly]

That LSU player’s shoe that was chucked by the Florida DB.

 

[18IsTheMan]

Doesn’t matter. We will be firing his replacement in 5 to 6 years anyway.

 

[Lurker123]

Briles!

 

[Deathstar]

Drinkowitz would be our best option.

 

[18IsTheMan]

Briles!

If Briles has any sense, he's getting out of Dodge before too much Gamecock stink gets on him.

 

[18IsTheMan]

Drinkowitz would be our best option.

Why on God's green earth would he come here?

 

[Lurker123]

If Briles has any sense, he's getting out of Dodge before too much Gamecock stink gets on him.

If our AD is competent, Briles, along with the rest of the staff, will be looking for jobs after this year.

 

[Dabo's Weenie]

Drinkowitz would be our best option.

I would hope not. I can't stand that guy.

 

[Deathstar]

I would hope not. I can't stand that guy.

Me either, but he wins everywhere he goes, and beats us.

 

[18IsTheMan]

I think Briles is alright. If we executed the plays called, we'd be fine. That said.....

We've lost 2 conference games in which we scored 34 points each and led 16-0 and 17-0. If you score 34 points, you should win.

We only topped 34 points 3x last year: SC State, UK and Coastal. However, against SC State we had 14 points on kick returns and we had at least one defensive score against UK, so the offense was not responsible for all of those points.

As frustrating as the offensive execution has been at times, we've scored enough that we should be 4-1 (2-1) right now.

 

[Dabo's Weenie]

Me either, but he wins everywhere he goes, and beats us.

Sorry, I couldn't get behind the guy if he came here. It's like when people have called for Petrino - winning doesn't trump everything for me. I'd just ignore the program until he was gone.

 

[Jonesz2]

Why on God's green earth would he come here?

Money is the only motivation nowadays

 

[Bubba Fett]

I'd give any of these guys a shot:

Buster Faulkner
Shannon Dawson
Charles Huff
Jake Dickert
Tony Elliott
Jason Eck
Shiel Wood

Saw that list on the piece by Bill Trocchi. They've got to write something speculative since there isn't currently an opening at USC - keeps the people talking... and reading.

Dan Mullen bring him back to the sec he would be good for South Carolina

 

[Bubba Fett]

Mullen is a good guy but his record as a Head Coach is worse than 10 or 11 of the current SEC coaches. He would only be a slight improvement over Beamer.

 

[scratchycat3]

He had 10 win seasons at Florida didn’t he ?
34-15 not bad though. Maybe 7th overall in the conference consistently and a chance at the playoffs one or two years

 

[scratchycat3]

Mullen is a good guy but his record as a Head Coach is worse than 10 or 11 of the current SEC coaches. He would only be a slight improvement over Beamer.

He won 10-3 in 2018 and in 2019 went 11-2 and won the orange bowl . 11-2 would be a playoff team

 

[RL09]

I could be mistaken, but I think Briles came here with the idea of becoming the next hc here, furthermore, I do not want to lose our current OL, RB or Briles. Our current OL and RB coach are doing an absolutely phenomenal job. I would be good with giving Briles the interim, allow him the opportunity to make some tweaks. I don't care of it when some of our fans think we stink and could not hire a good coach.

One of key issues with our offense is still Sellers, he lacks the football IQ to be a great/reliable qb. I was at the game tonight, again, he cannot see wide open receivers in plain view. He got away with some errant throws, almost threw a pick in a critical moment near the end of the game, luckily it was dropped. He isn't terribly accurate either, many low passes or behind the receiver. He is a tremendous athlete for sure, but would be a much bigger asset at a different position in my opinion. Beamer is just married to Sellers so i am sure we will all get to see plenty more of him this season. As far as firing Beamer, that will be extremely expensive, plus with the multiple new assistants with contracts, to me the logical move is to give Briles a chance.
