Beamer’s coaching staff approval/disapproval ratio predictions?

[Jon Snow]

Just for fun, and of course we KNOW there likely won’t be a consensus on many hires...what percentage of Beamers hires do you think the majority of this board/Gamecock fans will approve of?

I’m going high and will say at most there will be 2 hires fans will question.

 

[AnCRooster]

Considering his main selling point was the great staff he was bringing, I'm going to say about 20% approval.

The loudest voices on here will bitch and moan and belly-ache no matter who he hires because they are mad we didn’t hire Napier or Chadwell. And they’ll be drawn to this OP like moths to a flame.

With Rileys help Coach B will put together a good staff on paper...

 

[75CarolinaFan]

Hundo P! I mean most were happy with the last two HC hires so is there a lower floor?

Not if they keep Bobo. Two salaries for a mish mash OC would be better spent on a proven top level guy.

 

[DibbleDee]

I really don't see anyone on here complaining.

Priority 1 is to keep Connor Shaw. I don’t know if Mangus would be a good addition or not. Shaw and Mangus worked well together.

I thought Larry put together a pretty good staff on paper too. Except for Roper. That was the hire that most people scratched their head over.

It isn't about who but how well they will work together. To that end, I think the OC and DC should hire their own staff. A HC should have very strong reasons for rejecting a hire.

For example, Spurrier should NOT have let Whammy hire Deke Adams.

I think Connor has decided to go back to off-field role for next season.

Don't get confused by whomever shows up, or stays. Xs and Os don't matter. And you really want know how good, or bad, these coaches are for a couple of years. It is all about recruiting. Scheme means nothing if the talent isn't upgraded. And upgraded in a dramatic way.

Some of them will like for Mr. BoBo to stay. I appreciate all that Mr BoBo has done, but I think we need a clean slate and a fresh start!!!

Agree to an extent. Talent usually wins out. But good coaches that can teach the game can get a lot more out of lesser players. That can be the difference in an extra win or two -- maybe even a big one. Enough of those can lead to recruiting better talent.

I am afraid at this point, it may be a lost cause. I truly don't think thos in charge give the slightest crap about football other than to cash those SEC checks. The last two football HC hires are proof. We can pray and hope some technique, or cute scheme, might help USC catch up. Superior talent stops all nonsense

That's definitely a concern.
