Nope. That's what I thought. That you won't name their best win because it is no better than our best win.

Overrated.

If in Beamer's 3rd season next year he comes within 6 points of beating a Top 10 team like Kiffin did yesterday against Alabama, there will be a parade in Beamer's honor next season in Columbia. Speculation, I know. Here is what's not speculation: Beamer won't win 10 games in his 2nd season at SC and finish #11 in the nation like Kiffin did in Year 2 at Ole Miss. From a coaching standpoint, Beamer is not fit to hold Kiffin's clipboard.

Again, you are lying.

I never interacted with him and this was his FIRST post to me.

You have defended Marcus Satterfield. That, in & of itself, is idiocy.

How long did it take a legend of college football to do it? We had some terrible offenses well past his first 2 years. Hell, he lost to VANDY 2 years in a row. Year 3 and 4.

Wasn't this when James Franklin was Vandy's Coach?

Bobby Johnson. Franklin was later.

Here's another hypothetical. If Beamer is 8-2 next year after 10 games, and ranked 11th in the country, what would you wager a certain poster claims it's "undeniable improvement" and celebrates it, all the while denigrating it this year with Kiffin?

It did take Spurrier some time to really get things going, BUT what he did to keep the fan base energized was start making us competitive in games where we'd traditionally struggled.

In Year 1, we lost to UGA by 2 and beat UT and UF. Beating UT and UF in the same season bought him several years of credibility on its own. The next season we beat Clemson. In '07 we beat UGA and #8 UK (yeah, we all know how the season ended). In '08 we beat UT again.

There were obvious disappointments. The aforementioned end to the '07 season. Losing to Vandy in back-to-back seasons, but the promising wins were sprinkled in. The gave hope that change was coming, and it was.

We have not any such hope yet. To Shane's credit, we're winning games that we were losing the last couple years under Muschamp. But we have yet to beat a good team under Beamer. Granted, it's only Year 2. However, not only have we not beat a good team, we're not even playing the good teams competitively. If he could find a way to upset UT (not happening) or Clemson (slightly less likely to not happen) that would go a long way towards calming the fan base. At some point, we need to be competitive with and beat a good team.

That your opinion isn't shared by those that make the polls? That's what I thought too. That's why I said it.

It will be now after Arkansas beat Ole Piss by 15 last night.

Like I said, overrated. Fact.

If by overrated you mean still higher rated than us.
