Well, I stopped defending Muschamp after the UNC game and wanted him fired after that season but unfortunately it didn't happen. I actually lost faith in him after the Belk Bowl shut out when he refused to put in Scarn even though it was his last game and for 5 years he did whatever was asked of him. Now, I will support any coach going into a season and hope for the best because he is our coach, but that doesn't mean I will defend him and I did not defend Muschamp going into the last 2 seasons.
I do agree with what you said, coaches have to develop players and that didn't happen under Muschamp. Will it happen with Beamer? Well, we won't know for certain until September but so far I really like what I see. So I will support and even defend Beamer until he gives me reason not to. But that's just how I roll.
