I totally agree that we need a BALANCED offense. Regarding Foster, I understand and am sympathetic with your point of view for someone younger. But I really don't consider him "washed up" from a productivity standpoint. He'd be a good hire, in my opinion.
Who, if anyone, will Beamer retain?
- Thread starter kotr
- Start date
This is probably going to come across as a joke, but I'm actually serious. What about Spurrier Jr. as WR coach? He actually did a really good job with receivers here.
It's likely too much of an ask since it seems as though he and his family put their Carolina gear up for sale as soon as it was acceptable.
10 years ago i would have been all for it. Now not so much. Why do we insist on bringing in coaches past their prime
It’s come up before on here; as long as no one has the harebrained idea to make him recruiting coordinator, it could work. We had good receivers who could make plays when he was WR receivers coach here.
kott is right... and Foster has issues...
I'm with NOVA... what does Bentley being to the table?

As we've learned in the past, we could do a lot worse at OL than Wolford. I say let Bobo Go Go. I have only been somewhat impressed by his play calling because it was so sorry before he came.
My opinion on Bobby is I hope they keep him around in some capacity. As a Byrnes guy who attended and played there long ago as well as my children more recently I saw Bobby build an offensive dynasty. The one thing that was trouble for him was he seemed to get impatient and force the passing when they were locked in a close tough game with a Gaffney or Dorman. He would also blow those two teams out on occasion but when it was real close he didn’t seem to keep pounding the rock if it was tough going.
With emphasis on removing Trob and Bobo. Trob really needs to be gone!
Possibly. Or maybe we just don't have any WRs on the team worth a hoot other than Shi Smith. I imagine whoever he hires as OC will want his own WR coach. It it turns out he retains Bobo then I think Bobo wants Cox to stay.
The change might take awhile to effect. I do not expect more than three or four of the current coaches to be here when the 2021 season kicks off. That might be a generous estimate. That probably is a generous estimate.
What is being reported so far about staff:
TRob is out - already cleaned out his office and is gone.
Rod Wilson (LB coach) is in (coached at CSU)
DC - Jay Bateman (UNC) or Chad Staggs (CCU)
OC - Garrett Riley

That Bateman boy is supposed to have a handle on N.C. recruiting.
Wow. Are these official or just what people who are supposedly in the know think are going to happen?
Not official. It is being reported. Here's a link.
Update on Shane Beamer's South Carolina staff
Shane Beamer is on the ground in Columbia, and movement on his initial South Carolina staff is afoot. First off, the word in the coaching profession is Beamer
footballscoop.com
Really? He's only been there a couple of years.
Also like what Kitchings has done with our RBs. Has been the bright spot this year....and started off with the worst injury. Just think he is a good coach.
Seems like the offensive and defensive coordinators should be hired first before announcing who’s staying. I’d imagine they’ll have an opinion on the matter
Can we have him and his entire defensive unit? Entire 3-deep. 😁
The Goat people say Bateman is a crack recruiter up there.
Jay Bateman at DC and Garrett Riley at OC would be stout.
We need a great hire for OL and for DL too.

I must be missing something but Kentucky just beat our brains out. Fire every last person who had anything to do with creating this dumpster fire including the water boy. And please don’t go look to hire anyone who has any ties to SC football we have NEVER won anything of consequence and you don’t suck for over 100 years by accident. Whatever advice Beamer gets from our Administration he needs to do the complete opposite, pull a George Costanza.
What about Chris Rumph as DL coach? He was mentioned earlier today as a possible hire.
Wasn't his first big coaching job at CU where he said some negative things about SC. I remember some controversy with him even though he played here.
The only thing I remember was when he wanted to join Spurrier's staff.....Spurrier said something akin to "Rumph who?"
Don't remember his saying anything bad about us, but could be wrong.
