Maybe, but the Mercedes was worn out and never felt the same about South Carolina. Meanwhile, the Clemson fans watched in horror as the Gamecocks were hiring big name coaches like Lou Holtz and Steve Spurrier. At the same time Clemson was hiring washed up coaches sons like Tommy Bowden, and finally some clown nobody ever heard of named Dabo Swinney. I and half the fans were nearly in revolt after they failed to fire him after going 6-7 in his 2nd full year. I wanted everybody at Clemson fired and thought Clemson might never again beat the Gamecocks. Little did I know, Dabo was to become our best coach ever. Clemson had showed me and other fans were idiots. The Gamecocks were hiring past legends that never brought their past glory with them. Clemson was hiring coaches we, nor anyone else ever heard of except Dabo. Eventually his belief, made us fans believe too.

Carolina needs a full rebuild though, not just a quarterback or running back. I hope the fans of the Gamecocks have some patience. Year 4 is when big improvements should show...maybe even year 3. I actually want them to be competitive with Clemson. I still want Clemson to win close games against a ranked Gamecock team. Given time, Beamer is the kind of coach that can get them there.

"They got cocky" Shows a picture of the mascot, *cocky*

As a fan and a student who was at USC during the transition from Spurrier to Muchamp I think you hit a lot of good points. One thing I will mention that you didn’t really touch on was the muschamp contract extension. He received the dumbest contract extension after having one 9 win season. After his results at Florida and shaky first year many people thought the contract extension was offered too early. It was the opinion of a lot of people that Will was a placeholder. It was no secret we had our hearts set on Kirby Smart and it didn’t play out for us. So Will was sort of a back up. And the contract extension locked us in on a coach that ended up costing the team a ton of money and the end result was 7 wins, 4 wins, 2 wins and a 13+ million buy out

Very accurate. Also glad you spoke of how we were robbed in NY6 Bowls and 2012 we had the team to win a national championship.

Another thing that hurt USC is that they probably would've hired Smart had UGA not fired Richt.

Since 2014 they bring us up almost any chance. As a child and teen in the 80 and 90s they were more like pre-2015. It's why I give then the hard time they deserve. They're mostly fairweather fans.

That golden era by the Gamecocks in the early 2010s is the exception, and not the norm for Gamecock football. South Carolina high school football during that time was probably at it’s peak and the Gamecocks landed the state’s Mr. Football 3 times in a row who were also top national recruits in Gilmore, Lattimore, and Clowney. Teams like Byrnes, Dorman, South Pointe, Berkeley were some of the country’s best teams. Gamecocks benefited from a very talented pool of players from the state at that time. Also, Spurrier lack in recruiting late in his tenure is a reason for the downfall. He stop actively recruiting high school underclassmen and SC Mr. Football Shaq Roland left the program while he was there.

If there was ever a fan base that deserves a good season it’s South Carolina and this is coming from a Bama fan. Those people are incredibly loyal. By the way, that 2010 Alabama team that lost to USC is still one of the big mysteries of Alabama football. That team was stacked with talent and I still don’t know how they lost 3 games.

I am excited and very supportive of the selection of Shane Beamer. I hope we do t have another "Downfall" of the program. We need to look at the positive turn with Beamer.

Gamecock fighting was a ruthless horrible sport where competitors and fans took bets on which Gamecock would win. The reason I mention this is because of the Symbolisim that Gamecocks would many times fight to his death. Meaning Gamecocks never Give up or Quit. They endure to the end. The Symbolism of this is What many and Most Gamecock Fans are Proud of. Thank you for your research and your video.

Been a gamecock my whole life. Remember the Brad Scott era, remember the Lou Holtz era, the glorious Steve Spurrier era and the awful Will Muschamp era. If anyone that we interviewed can resurrect this program, it's Shane Beamer. Let's get it coach! #forevertothee

Do a video on the 2014 MSU Bulldogs

Nice work. We need to fire Tanner and the BOT. Only thing I’d add is Beamer worked for Spurrier with us.

Very interesting comments. In the Holtz era, overlooking the excesses of 22 Derek Watson led to his downfall and loss of the team. For Spurrier, his comments about only coaching a couple of more years killed his recruiting. The arrogance of a coaching staff member alienated the HS coaches. He, also, lost the team. Muschamp was a mistake from the beginning. Tanner learned and acted more quickly this time when things became obvious. Shane Beamer is an excellent candidate who can unite the players, fans, and donors. I look for very good things in a couple of years and hope we are paying him a ton of money to keep him here in about three years. Go Gamecocks!

Spot on. Several HS coaches have commented on the same arrogance. Course you can not ignore those three great years. Was fun while it lasted.
