If you want to get a feel for the pulse of the South Carolina program right now, check out this nugget ($$):
Beamer chose not to put a punt team on the field during the spring game because he didn’t want to give away any secrets, which is an indication of how seriously he and Lembo are taking what they see as an advantage.
Insert your Vince Dooley “long snappah” joke here.

An indication they are going to be punting A LOT this season.

After the first game everyone will have seen their punt team, so I assume this gamesmanship is aimed only at their first opponent. That would be Eastern Illinois they’re worried about….

What the fuck did Sakerlina expect by hiring a special teams “coordinator “…every other school either wants an offensive or defensive minded genius…nope not the cannon shot boys ran out and got a scrum master.

The title of the piece asks if Beamer “Can return the program to prominence?” I chuckled.

Yes. One punt at a time.

By the time they’re done with their directional school openers, I’m pretty sure we will have already seen every possible way they can punt a football. But sure, keep whatever tricks up your sleeve for Eastern Illinois, you’ve only got three guarantee games, better make them count.

Bluto, when he’s fired in 4 years please title the post “Don’t go Shane” I have a feeling we’re going to miss him too soon in Columbia.

If the big secret he doesn’t want to reveal is that they’re going to be kicking away possession to their opponents a lot, I think the ‘Cock is out of the bag already.

Clearly this punter has a mighty leg, one that’s capable of some real (wait for it) cannon shots.

They need to practice punting cause all signs point to that part of special teams getting a ton of work during the games. Kickoffs…….not so much.

He was liked by all who met him here, seems like a good guy. I hope he gets them good enough to beat uf every now and then but never us.

I’d like to see Sackerlina schedule the FCS team that just hired the coach that never punts. Should be an entertaining/enlightening game.
