Just for kicks, I hopped over there to refresh my memory on all the discussion surrounding our coaching hire. I was gonna try to compile a list of candidates that were mentioned, but it was basically anyone with a pulse. Too many to count.
However, below are some of the more interesting comments surrounding the Beamer hire.
The whole "search" was a joke. They started with Beamer and will end with him. We're not serious about winning in football yet they'll throw away 100s of millions of dollars on it. Should be criminal.
We don't have men in the position of leadership with vision and know how. We are not going anywhere anytime soon.
No one, I mean no one, is coveting this guy for any position on any staff and we're giving him the keys to the car. Ray's last parting gift to us before retirement in 4 years. This is equivalent to the Steve Fig Newton or Sparky hire-and may be worse. At least King Dixon (RIP) was only our AD for a few years before McGee took over. Ray on the other hand by 2024 will have had 12 years to completely dismantle Carolina major mens sports.
Beamer is a hope and a prayer...but even more so he is the cheap option. He will work for less $ than Napier or Freeze and he will save the AD money by retaining a few assistant coaches. This is nothing more than a sham search if Beamer is selected.
Other than he coached here and his last name, how is he qualified? no other school is looking to hire him. Might as well interview Jeep Hunter or Jay Graham for head coach too. They have never been coordinators either. Beamer would be a very USC move.
The sad thing is Ole Miss took another shot and it will probably pay off...meanwhile it appears we are going to go the "safe" route and screw this up again. Only one school could go from SOS to Muskrat to Beamer...us. What a joke.
Completely unqualified. Would be a joke of a hire.
Exactly! Exactly! If they think that Beamer is a Dabo they are sadly mistaken. As you say, what are his credentials? If this happens this is typical of a Ray decision. How we screw up? Even Muschsmp is better. We go from bad to worse.
Thread title: "So in 5 years when Beamer becomes a position coach again."
One comment predicted he would need 7-8 years to accomplish anything.
I am also against this hire. There are far better choices out there. It's stupid to take this big a risk after the five years we've just been subjected to. Just further proof that Tanner is not qualified to make hiring decisions. Right now is the time to spend the money to get someone more likely to improve our team. Not the time for an experiment.
and on and on it goes...Anyway, you get the gist...
