Ha. The Culture... It doesn't look like it comes natural to him at all.
I wonder if Ray and the board had this type of thing as a line item with the hire?
They watched Dabo turn these antics into success for many years.

That is not a problem as long as the team is winning. Recruits enjoy it, etc.
It doesn't start to look bad until the winning stops.
It looks a little better than Dabo did when he was treading water.
Though the clowning was novel at that point and brought media attention.
I thought it was more embarrassing he was more worried if Clemson won or not at the end while walking out of the presser lol. "Did Clemson win?"........."yeah they did", "Oh wow...ok"
We do have seemingly a lot of injuries but the teams you mentioned have deep benches we don't.
I'd say "match up" is the most overused excuse made by fans. You know, hey, "we don't match up well with Alabama". That usually means the other team has a lot more talent and you're about to get smoked.
Again, that is no excuse. We are in year 3 of this staff. If UNC can beat us handily without their 2 top receivers, we should be able to play with a few injuries. I don't think UNC has any deeper bench than we do, nor Mizzou, nor Florida, nor Kentucky. The problem isn't not having a deep bench. We have just as many scholarships as any other school. The problem is having poor evaluations of talent, and not developing players.
Good insight!!! And here, within, lies the problem. Lack of Depth, not injuries.
Injuries are caused by GOD or, the devil, depending on your denomination. BUT, Lack of Depth is caused by Poor Recruiting, The Inability to Coach-Up players, the inability to make adjustments to the Game Plan to take advantage of the available personnel, the failure to prepare for replacements and the inability to recognize available talent that has been under utilized previously ....... Or, in other words,
Coaching!
Beamer is 1-1 versus UNC. We're not going to beat them every time.
In addition, UNC has been pulling in Top 10 recruiting classes. They have better talent top to bottom.
We were just coming off a strong close to last season and were underdogs to UNC on a neutral field to start the season.
If fans get their feelings hurt over that, they have the very same thin skin that they are accusing the coach of. .....and he is right, you know. Most fans don't know what it's like in a locker room. They usually just have opinions about it.
Oh for crying out loud, we were playing in the state of NC and they opened as a 1.5 point favorite. That's basically even. They beat us 31-17 and it wasn't even close.
And they have not had ANY top 10 classes in the last 5 years. The best they had was #11 in 2022. In 2019 they were #31.
Please quit just making up sh!t.
You know, I was told about all those "top ten" classes too, but never bothered to look them up. Once I did, (247 rankings) I also saw that they had a total of 0 top ten classes. I only went back to 2018 though.
I wonder where the notion of all these classes came from.
Edit: Also, per the "talent composite" site, we both had two 5 stars, and UNC had thirty 4 stars while we had twenty four. That doesn't seem like much of a talent gap.

Sorry genius. Top 11.
They've out recruited us consistently.
Even a few spots is a huge deal when you're in the Top 20.
Look at Spurrier's rise for evidence.
Beamer's incoming 2021 class during the transition was ranked 80th.
UNC's was #14 that year.
Mack Brown has been with UNC since 2019.
Beamer is 1-1 versus UNC.
I was being light hearted. Do you know what a sock account is? It's a second account that allows a poster to agree with themselves.
Outside of POSSIBLY Fowl and Dee I really don't smell any over here. My favorite hockey forum has several.
I actually don't believe Fowl and Dave are. Their writing styles and overall themes are different.
There's also not much back patting, answering for each other, and/or showing up out of nowhere like a pack of dogs when they have a poster they don't agree with.
Interesting that corroborating facts just brings out personal insults.
I just made the initial mistake of thinking Ward was being sincere in his debate. Fool me once, etc.
I don't want to get between you two 🙂
I munched my popcorn watching you and GoCocks have at it. I might need to get some more now. 🙂
That's why I said possibly. Thing is, socks are usually careful about changing styles and vocabulary. We only find out they're socks when they invariably forget which account they're logged on to lol.
Ha, there is no between in this case.
I was in the mood for serious discussion. Maybe if I get in the mood for just making crap up to pass the time.
The other? That's always entertaining.
On the other site "serious" discussions are only possible in a PM 🙂
That's why I like coming back here. We can actually get real over here.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but your argument above consisted of trying to play down UNC being ranked ahead of us in recruiting, that UNC wasn't "really" favored for our game this year, and that we should be beating UNC every time we play them with inferior overall talent?
What if your feelings aren’t hurt you’re just embarrassed your coach made himself look like an idiot?
You're still wrong. That's getting to be a habit with you. The 11th place was ONE FRIGGING YEAR, and that was 2022. In 2020 & 21 they were 14th and in 2019 they were 31st. 2018 & 2019 we finished ahead of them, so they haven't out recruited us consistently - according to the rankings that you so heavily believe in.
The average recruiting rank over the 4-year period leading into the game was as follows:
+ UNC: 17th
+ USC: 35th
And Mack Brown has been there since 2019.
"But, But....We're supposed to beat UNC every time. They are in the ACC for God sakes."
This went about as well as your NIL angle.
Our average is ruined by one gigantic outlier. Why do you always argue in such bad faith?
You're really working that bad faith line.
Riddle me this, why wouldn't 2021 be relevant if your talking about talent coming into a game?
If you want to argue in bad faith, remove 2021 and do it again. UNC is still up.
The better question is why you think Beamer should be the HC if we can only win when he has the talent advantage?
I am beginning to think he really just can't help himself. He makes wild statements with scant backup as though they are facts. He lies. And he contradicts himself. He's also incompetent at math it seems.
Maybe consider he beat UNC, #5 UT, Clemson and several others with more talent?
So why is it unfair to expect him to beat teams with more talent this year?
We're going to have our ups and downs. We're not going to beat UNC each time we play them.
We've had key injuries. The UF game was the one that got away.
Yet another LIE. You do realize we played UNC the FIRST game of the year, don't you? We didn't have many injuries then. UNC had as many or more than we did. You're just disingenuous.
