No...but i'm not idiot enough to think that we can get the brakes we got this year for two years in a row...or year in and out. To top it off....that was some ugly luck for those wins. You feel good about Tenn first half....A&M first 3 quarters..Clemson game? I know you can't win em all....but the sunshine pumpers are right inline with the cancel culture dem voting block that invaded many states and territories this past presidential election. Stomp your foot, tell a lie and chastise anybody who cries foul or disagrees.
Beamer's recruiting is killing the haters here....

You have 30 messages since 2006....on the FGF board. H#LL of a fan there Carolina boy. Your personal mission should be to enjoy the program when its actually good. Not much of a spokesman for SOS during those glory years....but you have a mission now, huh?
PS- Howard's Rock is a joke. It was a doorstop for many years. The real collegitate death valley exists in Baton Rouge, LA. Also, it is a scientific fact that Clemson fans and alumni alike are known mouth breathers. Make it your mission to pop a breath mint every now and again, and stop supporting Jim "Dabo" Bakker-Swinney and his band of merry fruits in the armpit of America.
The ignore feature works better than I imagined. It just shows a blank box with a strike through it on his posts. Everyone try it. I have no idea what his reply was and never will. He’s definitely one of the sicker taters out there… been playing dress-up on this board, pretending (let’s not call it “acting”) to be a Gamecock… putting a subversive tater spin on every single topic he has contributed to in like 20+ years. Anyone gonna be sad to see him go after all this time?
Or, we have a team that despite having glaring holes fought like hell and clawed for those wins. You don't seem to want the team to do well if that means people may date to think Beamer is a good coach, of course all the old players from when he was here, the reviews from media, the fact we got "lucky" enough to double what most thought w would do, the Oklahoma players who thought enough of him to follow, he's reported to be a favorite to be a favorite of people from Oklahoma who weren't even his position group, all of the coaches who said he has the right stuff all means jack because of this nobody shouting into the void with all the anonymity you deserve on a small niche message board, I don't think your opinion out-weighs all the people kissing our flavor of the month ass. Now you tell me, what will it take for you to shut the hell up? A win in the bowl? Ten next season? I think we could build a contender and take the East and you'd blame Beamer if we lost in the SECCG. No good team without a good coach, we like him because we want a good team and believe he's a good coach and we have way more evidence on our side, and you are undermining him.
Oklahoma is a air raid system? They run the ball a lot as well.
Geez, people are still using the term “sunshine pumpers” to describe fans? That’s like Clemson fans calling us “shamecocks” or “chickens”; went out of vogue long ago and id’s the user as a low brow.
You need to tap the brakes on 'who got whom'. Stogner was committing here all along. He convinced Rattler to give us a look - not the other way around. Although I was one of the first to say that Rattler would make recruiting easier since he would attract more elite players, to date not one player that we have committed has committed because Rattler is on the team. That last statement could change quickly and drastically in the upcoming days or weeks. And I thoroughly expect that to be the case.
Riley came up through Leach's tree but he diversified to fit the personnel when he got to Oklahoma and now if anything they have a very advanced system that could be characterized as a modern pro style just as much if not more so than air raid, especially when you consider how much air raid coaches and ideas changed pro football over the last decade, with fire example all of the shotgun spread stuff New Orleans and Seattle incorporated and then later Kliff Kingsbury heading there, also from Leach's tree. In truth, the only people that run a pure air raid is Leach and a couple of his dozen or so proteges. This guy hasn't updated his lexicon since '08 if he thinks our scheme isn't heavily influenced by the air raid just because it's described as "pro-style."
I said "with him," I'm sure it was a factor for both of them to pay both with each other and for Beamer. I didn't think we'd get him because there were no rumblings of note until it was said he would be in Columbia. No one will commit for him, but we won't have instate guys ignore the coaches the way we did with Randall, Lukus and Sneed, that's already a win.
I understand and agree with what you are saying. Just don't put the cart before the horse. Like I said, Rattler didn't get Stogner. It was the other way around.
Now, if Rattler had committed prior to A Williams making his decision, then I feel fairly secure in saying he may have committed to Beamer and not Dabo.
These guys (or is it just the one guy with multiple handles?) have been at this juvenile little game of charades for a loooooong time. The “watson” liar has been signed up since inception of this forum - and he goes back even further than that. He used to post under a couple different names on the old ESPN forums back in the late 90’s, and his writing style and word choices are EXTREMELY similar to a guy who used to post under multiple Clemson handles as well: gotigers33, and GreenClemson. I would bet my twin maracas that it’s the same guy…. Which proves your point: he’s an out of touch middle aged dude somewhere around 50 years old. The difference between he and I is that I’m self aware and get embarrassed when I do something that makes me look like an absolute child… him, not so much!!
You asked then changed the subject again. you are a straight loser, FO. k?
The ****? This guys plays too much xbox lol
He’s too old for Xbox. Maybe played some original Xbox in 2001-2002 era… Atari 2600 or intellivision, DEFINITELY!!
Lol…..you like to throw the word “objective”around a bunch. You even use that in another post saying rivals recruiting rankings are objective. That’s the most comical thing I’ve read tonight. All recruiting rankings are subjective. They are opinions and nothing else. Do you even know the meaning of the word objective?
His football knowledge stopped with Tecmo Bowl. He knows all four plays.
Great post…..Deboer keeps saying OU runs the air raid offense. I watched four of their games this year and I guess I must be losing it because they run the ball an awful damn lot. It may be my TV was just out of focus.
yes ....since 2000. More "power" raid nowadays...which is a version of AR. It evolved to go against the B12 defenses that were personelling to stop AR. If you put 6-7 DBs on the field every play....you run more power run. This is the "system" that Beamer came out of his 3-4 years in Norman....one I hoped he would bring to Columbia, and didn't.
No..I just know what I'm looking at. Not all football fans need to know all that....you can just watch and enjoy for pure entertainment and comradery....but it does make one wonder why so many talk about (and argue) things they obviously don't know anything about.
D, give it up man. Lincoln’s offense is nothing special. They have the players, and they execute at a high level. They drop back and throw the ball some. When your called plays work, you usually win.
2021 (Google is our friend):
- Mike Leach at MSU (air raid): 671 pass attempt; 250 rushing attempts
- Lincoln at OU (same thing everyone else tries to do): 374 pass attempts (31.4 per game); 401 rush attempts (33.4 per game)
I hope we do well in the bowl, and then next fall just got more interesting. Have a good day
I highly doubt the 2 are the same. Fact is the younger generation on here probably don't realize Rob was a huge fan favorite back in the day and was one of my favorites as well, so I welcome his insight and even if we have different opinions at times thats what makes for interesting discussions like the AR offense vs our current offense.
But, this Is a different topic for a different day, but eventually I would love to hear how his relationship is with the program and school now. We hear alot of how the univwrsity and some of our programs aren't as welcoming back to former players. Hope this is something thats changing for all carolina sports. But again different subject for a different day.
LOL!!!!!! I love when someone’s ridiculous argument gets completely destroyed with one irrefutable data box. It’s like this guy heard someone say “air raid” in a sportscast on his adult son’s iPod in 2005 and has been consciously trying to use the term whenever possible in a desperate attempt to be hip to the latest football lingo. Next thing you know, he’s gonna throw a hashtag in there and really blow everyone’s mind. I’ll never get to see it though… just the empty box with the strike through it. DeMute.
It's always cringe to see posts like this where posters go out of their way to show they don't know what they're talking about.
A simple google search will give you ample of reading material to understand why Lincoln Riley runs an air raid offense.
I don’t think so either, because I know Rob. Hung out with him at Headliner’s many many nights.
I do, and have no reason not to. He is a constant on social media with the health and fitness angle so no reason not to believe he still follows gamecock football closely and on here as well.
Then go ahead and explain to the others how Riley's system is his own twist on the air raid.
I still don't know what you're arguing...or why.
Rattler is a good QB...with a lot of arm talent. Who has said any different? But AR/PR put up stupid numbers since 2000 in Norman.
What I am saying is this: Our offense is pedestrian in a lot of ways. It isn't personnelled to be quick strike OR up tempo. If we are gonna be the first 12 or 13 personnel up tempo team.....I don't even want to finish that sentence because the level of stupidity if that's the direction is right up there with letting your most talented defensive lineman come in and attempt a pass on the GL.
Also....what's you're point about AR (Or Power Raid)? It's not special? You're right...google is our friend:

Budman...LOL...I've said this before on other threads and you probably didn't see it. I'm not THE Rob DeBoer....but it's always nice to recognize a Gamecock. I too would love to hear how his relationship is with the school. Loved his passion and style of play on both fields.
With all the trolling and games people play...somehow disagreement becomes offensive. I'm like you...I don't take it personally or as a slight if disagreement occurs...but everything has become a "I'm right/everyone else is wrong" society so it devolves quickly.
