Shane Beamer celebrated South Carolina’s fourth consecutive victory over Kentucky by letting the world know that he’s an avid consumer of the content on the KSR YouTube Channel.

Who can blame him? Steven Peake is a top-notch videographer who brings television-quality production to the streaming platform. We host a variety of entertaining shows that stream live every week. Clearly, Beamer endorses all of the content we’re sharing daily.

How do I know this to be true? This is what Beamer had to say to Cole Cubelic on the SEC Network.

“To me, Beamer Ball is when you can score on defense, you can make plays on special teams. One of their coaches this week got asked about Beamer Ball, and said, ‘I’m not familiar with that at South Carolina. That’s a Virginia Tech, Frank Beamer thing.’ So, we’ll see,” as he pointed to the scoreboard.

Where did Shane Beamer watch that interview? The only place you could find it, on the KSR YouTube Channel.

The South Carolina head coach is well-known for using external factors as motivation. In the Netflix Documentary, Any Given Saturday, he used a dry-erase marker to write down all of the bulletin board material he could find. He had to look hard and long to find it this week.

Following Tuesday’s practice, KSR spoke with special teams coach Jay Boulware, who previously worked with Beamer at Oklahoma. I asked him about the reputation of Beamer Ball, to which he replied, “Are we talking about Beamer Ball from his Dad’s days at Virginia Tech?”

This happened 17 minutes into a 34-minute video on the KSR YouTube Channel. It was the only place where you could find this statement. The Courier-Journal’s Ryan Black was the only other person there. He did not share it anywhere. I did not write that line either, but shared the other complimentary lines from Boulware. It was an innocuous comment that preceded a lengthy amount of praise for the South Carolina special teams unit.

That South Carolina special teams unit had a rough night at Williams-Brice Stadium. They were flagged for an illegal fair catch signal, a penalty that was created this year because of South Carolina shenanigans against Illinois in the Citrus Bowl. Their punter shanked a 16-yard punt. Beamer also dialed up a fake punt on 4th and 12 in the second half that was stopped short of the line to gain and led to the only points Kentucky scored in the second half.

Shane Beamer got to take a victory lap against Kentucky. He did that by taking a shot at a former colleague, who had made a light-hearted comment that received no attention from anyone besides the South Carolina head coach.
