Everything Shane Beamer said during Sunday teleconference
By Chris Clark
A day after his South Carolina football program lost a gut-wrenching contest to Florida at home, Shane Beamer addressed the media during his Sunday teleconference.
Following is a transcript of the Gamecocks’ head coach’s remarks:
BEAMER OPENING STATEMENT:
Obviously, some amazing news that just came out in the recruiting world. So, great day here in our facility from that standpoint and another statement about what’s going on in this program.
Going back to last night, a couple things that certainly I wanted to clarify and address. One was I made a comment about not running pressures and I think that came across as, you know, we’re calling something and guys aren’t running them. That’s not necessarily the case. There were, like I said, times where Florida gave us a formation that we had to adjust to and whether that meant, you know, we got out of the pressure or someone else ran it.
We didn’t do a great job of that, you know, throughout the night. But a bigger issue, we didn’t do a great job of adjusting. Sometimes we did well, we just weren’t consistent enough on adjusting to those pressures or adjusting to their formations.
