Beamer

But you want to give coach of the year to a guy who had a good season for South Carolina? but not a great season?

I think Coach Beamer earned it over the Vandy coach- yes. I don't think that is that close really.

So it would then come down to Beamer and Smart - or the Texas coach. Both UGA and Texas have much more talent than South Carolina.

Smart didn't have the year they've had the last few years. So then it would be Beamer or the Texas coach. So it boils down to who did a better job with the talent they had.

Beamer- redshirt freshman starting for first time. Texas with a very experienced former 5 star QB leading an absolutely loaded team.

I think Beamer gets the nod there. yes.

and generally, I'm going to side and pull for the coach of my school over the coach at other places.

and I'd have a real problem giving such an award to a coach whose team lost 4 of the last 5 games no matter who the coach was or where he coached. When you lose 4 of the last 5, you are having some significant issues that you can't overcome.
 
Buyouts are just like salary. They are going to be negotiated based on leverage. Howling monkey fans calling for coaches to be fired at the first signs of adversity doesn't help.

I dont think posts on a message board make any difference whatsoever. Especially compared to putting out seasons like this one, or last years losing season.

But you made it almost 2 days this time before crawling back begging for more attention. Congratulations.

Yep. The AD exercised its leverage during the initial hire.

Now the tables have turned because of the success.

Beamer's agent now be dictating those terms which likely will be framed around the SEC industry average.

I can admit when I am wrong. I thought Beamer was a bad hire due to his limited experience, never a head coach, never a coordinator. I have seen a passion to succeed in Coach Beamer that I never saw in Woods, Scott, Holtz, Spurrier, and Muschamp. Spurrier was fantastic but recruiting was not his favorite part of being a head coach. Beamer is attending to every detail and putting in the work.
Great post.
 
I think he’ll be looking for a huge pay increase. He may want to be here but there are now many other schools that are willing to pay him him huge dollars.

Schools are going to have to take a hard look at their finances soon and realize they can't actually afford to pay these coaches $10 million a year now with revenue sharing. You've seen Brian Kelly give back $1 million in salary. Now Norvell is giving back $4.5 million.

Schools are going to be decimated if they have to fire a coach being paid $10 million a year now. Before they could absorb it but not with revenue sharing.
