I didnt realize Shaw played for Dowell in Chicago and Cleveland. Shaw endorses him, says USC just got better. Id imagine Beamer spoke w Shaw about how Dowell was to play for. This combined w his rep as a great recruiter = that’s enough for me. I was skeptical about the hire but no more, lets just see how it works out. He can recruit, and out best QB ever played for him and said we are better as a result of hiring him. Now lets just find a way to stop this NIL/portal chaos
Connor Shaw endorses new OC hire; Thats enough for me
- Thread starter Bucs90
- Start date
In fairness though, he also trumpeted Roper when he moved to OC under Muschamp.
Oh. Well I dont know, but he played for Dowell as an OC at 2 different places. Guess Im looking for a reason to be excited for this hire and this is good enough for me!
Connor Shaw also endorsed Muschamp. So I wouldn’t base by opinion on just that. Shaw could just personally like the guy. Or be trying to keep the fanbase positive. Shaw knows more about football than I ever will and what goes on behind the scenes.
I trust it will be a good hire because of Beamer and we seem to be trending up. I’m optimistic. I hope he brings some weapons with him to replace the ones that got sucked into the portal.

I think this should be the approach. Connors endorsement should not swing the pendulum one way or another.

If you watched the press conference and still do not like the hire. It’s going to be a long 6-10 years for you as a Gamecock fan.

Why do people feel the need to post something like this?
It would be nice if we made a great hire for once and really felt this way instead of telling ourselves stuff like this.
Interesting read here… I’m also kinda glad to see Beamer fired up and emotional about this. Has some good things to say about Loggains.
He had some really bad NFL QB’s he was forced to coach - after learning that some of his offensive ranking stats make a little more sense.
Guess we’ll see - sounds like I need to watch the presser

Why is a press conference necessary to feel good about the hire? Shouldn't the hire speak for itself?
Maybe Connor is complimenting all the hires because he wants a job on staff.
I've noticed this seems to have become the argument to support Loggains. So you're saying he couldn't beat more talented teams?
How is that a good thing? We're currently ranked 9th out of 14 in recruiting in the SEC. So if he needs more talent than his opponents to be good at his job, we may be in trouble.
I think it's a poor hire but complaining about it now is not worth my time.
I'm not going to brag about the hire because some people defend it either.

This is the sensible take. It is what it is at this point. No point in pretending he's a failure and no point in claiming him to be a success.
This is less of an endorsement than a kiss of death based on Shaw's endorsement record.
