South Carolina E-Mails Prior To Will Muschamp's Firing (Late Kick Cut)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 มิ.ย. 2021
- Will Muschamp was fired as South Carolina head coach last season in a move that ended up setting off a chain reaction of coaching changes whereas just months prior it was thought that College Football would largely go without the usual coaching carousel cycle due to COVID. On Late Kick Live Ep 146 Josh Pate discussed a series of articles from TheState.com in which emails from Ray Tanner and several notable Gamecocks officials and alumni were recently made public in response to a FOIA request. What can be learned from the e-mail dump and what potential bigger lesson could be drawn from their contents? Also Josh shares his updated feelings on Shane Beamer and where the South Carolina football program could be headed. How do you see the Gamecocks doing this year?

I was silly like everyone now but I miss having 4 undefeated teams. Miss the debate of who really was the nat champ.
Bcs and playoffs didn't make anything better it just robbed kids of unique special success by our greed wanting to define 132 colleges down to 1 winner .
Reforming reform doesn't make anything better. Painting a terd .
Its killed regional fan bases. When usc and ucla was undefeated out west , notre dame or penn up north east and sec champ down south all finished undefeated and shared titles , we all won! That in it self was amazing for thise kids and the region.
that generated regional vs region mass debate between fans who they thought was champs and it was awesome .
We have messed up what was a great organically built system .
this is the CFB content we want in the non-game portion of the season - insider knowledge!
yeah insider knowledge you can get for $1 a month from the state news paper lol

I hate the post NCAA Basketball Tournament non-game portion of the season!!! Sooo bored!!!!! I WANT FOOTBALL!!!!! DAMN IT!!!!!!
@@chadneumann2772 almost there.. End of August/Sept will be here and 💥 Your Saturdays shall be taken over
Preach Josh. I've been saying this exact same thing about dysfunctional coaching searches for years. Athletic directors listening to noise on the internet, and too many boosters interfering.
Boosters pay the bills dude, and if you want to see a program die then ignore the boosters.
Will has no business being a head coach. He's talented but he can't be the top guy. A head coach in college football is a CEO. It requires managerial ability. That ain't Will Muschamp.
Not to mention the anger issues lol
Let’s be real. There isn’t many coaches at all that are the CEO of their program. You think every coach is in total control like , Nick Saban? It’s not like that at most programs
It's crazy to me that school administration pays attention to teeny-bopper hashtags on social media, especially for multi-million dollar coaching deals. They are afraid of criticism, yes--except when it comes to rising tuition.
It does seem absolutely crazy, however, how many "coaching searches" have we seen done by so called "expert search firms" end up being complete garbage? Ultimately, I don't think there's a magic formula for picking a successful HC. So many things have to synch up that I guess finding a guy on Twitter is as good as hiring a multi million dollar frim to search for a coach.
Always love your program , and the set looks great ! Thanks for the show . God bless .
Give me the keys to a program - we'll make marked improvement across the board then 5yrs later receive the NCAA death penalty for a litany of infractions. But those will be a neat 5yrs.
As a 6 time national championship coach (EA Sports, NCAA Football 2015) you should consider bringing me on staff. I will also create a very large amount of violations, but the next 5 years will be remembered by SC fans for a lifetime!
I'm confused. How does a player in the summer, drop in the 247 rankings right before a visit to a school? Particularly 1 school? Same thing happened last year during lockdown. No camps and yet certain 4 n 5 stars does in rank after committing.
Makes it difficult to not claim a bias.
Great coverage!!!
I have no idea how to run a search for a head coach. It's pretty obvious a lot of colleges have the same problem but don't realize it.
Insanely good content!!!
Wow great video Josh!! Facts...
It’s obscene what these athletic departments are spending on people who aren’t qualified to push a broom, much less have a major job title at a power 5 collegiate athletic program. And don’t even get me started on how ivory tower these donors are.
I'm glad we got Shane, I hope he succeeds because he loves it here and you can see the desire he has to win at South Carolina. At the end of the day every hire will be judged on wins and losses and nobody can predict the future.
Sure people can predict the future. I predicted a lot of what’s happening at South Carolina. I’ll predict this. Beamer won’t win at South Carolina. It will take a major player caller to win there. It’s not an easy place to recruit. Considering SCs schedule they better clean house. The entire school is a nuclear winter.
@@jonstrickland4848 Watch out there Nostradamus don't get too carried away.
@@jonstrickland4848 you can't predict much either, child
If he does win big on a regular basis he won’t stay long...
@@nightranger3430 I think you're wrong on that one, South Carolina has been his dream job for a while and Carolina has no problem matching money with anybody so if he starts winning there is really nothing to draw him away from the program.
This is one of the best shows. Excellent job.
Are you telling me Ray Tanner is bad at his job? I am shocked, I tell you, SHOCKED that you would make such a patiently obvious claim.
Patently*
Great video
TH-cam recommended this and you just earned a subscriber. Excellent content
Welcome aboard James! Live shows every Sun & Thurs evening. - JP
The best college football show there is! Period!
I'm still dumbfounded SC hired him in the first place. He couldn't win at Fla and he's going to win at SC? Yeah sure.
Timothy Cunnungham- you're dumbfounded that ray "LORD OF THE IDIOTS" tanner hired will mustgochump in the first place due to the probability that you're competent in your job. ray "LORD OF THE IDIOTS" tanner does not suffer from this affliction. It only makes sense for the worst "head coach" in the history of college football to be hired by the worst "athletic director" in the galaxy.
As a Clemson fan I thought the exact thing. I asked my sc fan friend about it and I could see the denial in his eyes as he preached hope. Well that ended up working out well… 😂
Now he’s at UGA. There’s no corruption there. 😆
UofSC has had a board of trustees problem for quite a while. The AD that was there when Spurrier was hired was a damn good one. He'd spent time previously at Bama and Florida and knew what it took. It also helped when Boosters stepped up. They were virtually non existent before Spurrier asked for their help.
Exactly. Anyone that follows SCar football knows that the situation with Tanner and the BOTs is probably the main problem.
AD-Mike McGee 👍
He Hired Lou Holts Also 👍
Plus Current AD Coach Tanner 👍
And left for that other USC Team 🤣🤣🤣
I never did figure that one out 🤷♂️
Go Gamecocks!!!👍👍👍
You’re correct in your assessment as far as the hiring practice. It’s not just South Carolina it’s MOST institutions!
He wasnt worried, he got a huge buyout. I wouldnt be worried about getting fired either.
He got nearly 20 million for being such a bad coach at Florida and South Carolina.
@@rolltide9547 in the words of Paul Finebaum, "He's not a good coach, but he should always have a job waiting at Goldman Sachs."
Honestly it looked like he was trying to be fired. He was going to make more money per hour doing nothing then having to actually work 4 years. That contract was so horrendous it actually rewarded him to be bad. If he wins he maybe gets another contract. If he loses he gets 20 million to go sip pina coladas on the beach
@@joshuamercadel3114 great point.
When FSU fired Willie Taggart he got around $20 million.
These contracts are absolutely criminal.
I feel like there were a LOT of hidden Jeremy Pruitt references here 😂🍊
Well said. Program internal decision making is why so many teams can't compete. More playoff games won't change that!
I agree with you Josh, the system didn’t keep Tennessee down it was hiring and contracts that has held the Vols down. I was Very happy when the fired head coach wasn’t paid out his contract. At least they’re growing a pair. But we will see throughout this season if they are getting better at hiring. Will we here Rocky Top at the end of the game. At least six times on different Saturday’s.
Should have hired Greg Shino!!
@@UrbanKnightMedia I didn’t want us to hire him but that frustrated me. If you thought he was the right guy you should’ve have changed because of the fans. If his past was an issue you should’ve done a better job at vetting him. Either way you screwed up.
@@UrbanKnightMedia it’s schiano...and no, we shouldn’t have hired him. Look how it’s turned out for him at Rutgers so far. Not good.
Tennessee fans were tired of incompetent AD’s who were listening to boosters. They never vetted schiano. I’m pretty sure schiano didn’t do anything wrong at Penn state (except keeping his mouth shut) but TN fans weren’t having it this time. Pruitt would’ve been a good coach if he wouldn’t have had such a bad attitude
I never understood the Muschamp hire in the first place. I'm surprised Venables hasn't been considered.
LOL
Venables isn't leaving Clemson currently. Either a massive paycheck or a VERY high profile job seems to be that. We were neither. Glad we weren't.
Because Venables is Muschamp
Crazy!
nailed it!
Damn.
Good.
Insight.
PREACH!!
Agree with everything you said. I love Ray as a baseball coach. He is an Ok AD. I never understood the Muschamp hire. He failed at UF so why would that be a good fit for a harder place to coach/recruit too. My take is here are some names to do homework on. I was extremely happy about the Beamer pick. I always liked him. I think he had done more than expected the last two years. I see good things coming too!
Usc just can’t get it right .
turn your volume up
Oh. I'm loving this.
Huge Gator Fan! I knew when Kirby hired Muschamp, the Dawgs would win the National Championship. Will knows defense like Dan Mullen knows offense, but neither is a head coach.
I wonder if Willie Taggart was a social media hire.
7:35 Preach it!
That list of coaches is on just about every college football program ‘s list looking for a head coach. It’s not like you broke something that people didn’t know already.
Thank goodness for the Oklahoma student paper!
I'm still wondering why Auburn hired a coach from Idaho? 🤔
Tough hiring for a second rate school in a third rate state.
Wow - name a state that has had more success in college football in the 21st century:
This is so true
A good example that comes to mind of a coach excelling in one environment but failing in another would probably be Rich Rod. The man was absolutely successful during his tenure with West Virginia but wasn’t really able to bring over that coaching style to a place like Michigan.
Saban @ Dolphins!
@@shrupe Totally different coaching millionaires and unpaid (then) college athletes.
Lou Holtz (Vikings???), Nick Saban (Dolphins), Old Ball Coach (Redskins), & Urban Meyer (Jaguars) were ALL superb CFB coaches who were TOTALLY failures in the NFL.
I believe it had to do with their obsession with CONTROL of these millionaires and they weren't having none of that.
You are 100% correct. They need to look in the mirror when they point fingers.
“My emails will be released once the FOI requests are processed. Should I put actual process in email or stick with the old system of phone calls and handshakes?”
Canning coach Muschump and later hiring coach Shane Beamer was the best single thing that the South Carolina athletic dept. has done in years. Coach Chump was a good recruiter, otherwise he was a complete failure at player development and game day coaching. It'll be very interesting to see what coach Beamer and his new staff can do with the talent he inherited, the same talent that coach Chump and his entire staff fell flat on their face with.
Beamer trains rolling with the recruits right now too
@@eklypised he certainly appears to be building nothing less than a Top 25 Class, hopefully better when all is said and done. It's ever so refreshing to have ridden our program of that prior toxic coaching staff and the very poor culture it cultivated.
Wow! Interesting!
Josh, you have a one year picture. Is recruiting is off the chart in his second year and he is a good coach.
He wasn’t worried because he knew Kirby would give him a job at Georgia
Man coming across this late, but Josh you hit the nail on the head on this one! I would even take it further about the bad hires, and say sometimes coaches need more time, then what is allotted to them! However, this day age it is win or your done in three or four! Long gone are the days a coach gets to build a program, and 5-7 years or even longer to do so. Because when you make a bad hire, and turn around and let them go you’re further behind then when you started. Now hindsight is 20/20, and out of all the names that were floated out there Beamer may have been the only one that wanted the job! It appears Tanner may have gotten this one right, but year three is just around the corner, and if another year of improvement is definitely what is needed! Now, Kirby Smart’s wife said they were almost headed to Columbia, but when Georgia fired Richt, if we as Gamecock fans are being honest, a better job opened up, and we see what happened there. As a South Carolina Guy, and having been one for 30 plus years. I am loving the Beamer hire, and the fact he is young, and could be with South Carolina for many years! Great stuff and perspectives as always! Spurrier was an incredible get, but he was closer to the end then the beginning. Showed he had a little magic, but just not enough! It’s also wonderful that Shane Beamer has been around some legends in the College Football circle, and these first years it has shown!
He is no head coach. He gets over saturated like a bad pilot.
Arizona sure screwed up hiring Kevin Sumlin. It set the program back ten years . Lets hope they made the right choicewith Jed Fisch.
At some point I'm hoping that Josh will reveal which head coaches he has personally hired and what the outcomes were.
He’d probably do as effective of a job as the crew at USC. Which is bad, and that’s his point.
You see my applying for any A.D jobs? -JP
We hired Winless Willy to follow Jimbo and Bobby.
All because of his tan.
Interesting
Can we get some more news about Tennessee
They will suck--again.
@@Mikevdog yeah your probably right but we’ll be better than last year
Tennessee is a girls basketball school......
This whole thing is crazy. I'm a Sooner fan and alum, and I really like Shane Beamer. I thought he was a perfect fit at OU as a special teams coordinator (I think he also coached the H backs and TEs). Anyway, my jaw dropped when I heard he was going to SC. Not because I was worried about losing a great coach (again, I do think he was very good at what he did), but because of every assistant on the OU staff, he was the last guy I thought would be a head coach. That said, I really do hope he goes on to be a phenomenal HC at SC, it's just that the hire seemed, well, unconventional. We'll see how it plays out, but like I said, I hope he does amazing!
I can understand your thinking. He wasnt even a coordinator. A lot of SC fans said the same thing. But something is different with Beamer and we are so happy to have him.
@@loganhall368 I've really enjoyed watching him do well. I know SC isn't where fans/coaches/players want it to be, but it sure looks like it's heading in the right direction. And Rattler really looked good late in the year. I hope he comes back for one more year because I think his best ball is ahead of him.
Most ADs are clueless on hiring sports coaches. Look at all universities they may get lucky on 1 maybe 2 coaches. Name me the school with multiple sports programs winning titles. There are a lot of college sports and maybe a few have titles in more than one sport in a yr.
His insistence to keep Kurt Roper as his OC was is a big problem . Should have hired Jim Chaney or Hugh freeze .
Gamecocks, come on, he failed at Florida. His Gators were tied with a cupcake for homecoming 7-7. Before they won on a field goal.
Want to catch Clemson, get coaches who are Sabans up and coming. Not recycled bad coaches.
Can anyone cite any statistics supporting the claim that hiring malpractice is responsible for on-field achievement? Sure it sounds good, but claims without evidentiary support are just theories.
It's not ALL about the coaches, its about the players too. The good schools keep rolling w/ good quality recruits and there is no equalizing force (i.e., draft, salary cap, etc.,) to enable the other schools to get good quality players. Something has to be done to help parity, otherwise we're going to always have a top heavy sport.
No employee of a state college should receive more than $250,000 a year. That's university president, football coach, or janitor.
Why is that? - JP
@@LateKickwithJoshPate These schools are heavily subsidized by taxpayers and receive billions every year from the state budget.
We're saddling an increasing number of our younger generations with more and more debt as the cost to attend these institutions rises year after year.
It is obscene to pay these employees millions, whether they fail or succeed, when no other public sector does anything remotely close to that.
Most get small state salary, most comes from other sources. Do your home work alabama state does not pay the millions nick gets. Most from contracts with university for endorsements and money from school supporters. Aka boosters etc.
@@RT22-pb2pp How does this help the students? The cost of tuition at Alabama has increased over 300% in 20 years. The football program cannot exist without the students.
Edit: [hit SEND too fast]
Way too many students, our younger generations, are taking on more and more debt to attend these universities. The price keeps going up, the cost to the state to run these universities and assist the students keeps going up, and in almost every state the highest paid public employee is a coach.
At the very least our priorities are messed up.
@@Cautionary_Tale_Harris that is all universities not just bama and innowway does tuition got Nick's salary,oh bythe way since nick arrived and started winning football generates 250 million a yr more than before he arrived, that is tv and donations to program which gets spread out across other sports and school. Male moore whohired him said before he died Saban was best investment the school ever made.
If you think that stops at the college football level you'd be mistaken. With the amount of money in football these days, there is a lot of cronyism that leads to decision makers being implanted in spots where they have no business being. They are up there and out there making the wildest of decisions born out of the root of them simply not knowing what the hell they are doing.
Love Carolina and have for most of my life but the leadership has made bad decision after bad decision. I like Beamer but time will tell if he’s a good head coach and hopefully he’ll get the support and time needed to give it a real shot. First time catching your show and enjoyed the content.
worked out so far
This video would make so much more sense if Beamer was the head and shoulders favorite for the job. Chadwell and Frost had the most buzz, by far.
This isn't accurate. - JP
Watching this in 2024, they might as well of stuck with Will.
Thanks for your great content, but I really hope I never have to hear this clowns name again
I will always dunk on South Carolina though
We hired Spurrier, Muschamp...I think if we were hiring in the trending category then it'd be Florida Gator washouts.. hell why don't we just go after freaking Tebow now. I love south Carolina to the death, although they have led me closer to that since Spurrier ditched us in the middle of the season. Hey Gamecocks, ever heard of ACTUALLY STARTING FRESH???? Hang in there a little bit longer Gamecocks fans... Something has ABSOLUTELY GOT TO BREAK LOOSE SOON. Godspeed.
🐓©️0️⃣©️KY🐓
What people don’t know about Spurrier Leaving is the Boosters (Or Maybe Someone in the Board of Directors) didn’t like a Coach He Wanted to Hire and He Was Told To Hire A Different Coach…
At which point he decided that was a Deal Breaker and Left!!! I for one Don’t Blame Coach Spurrier!!!
Go Gamecocks!!!👍👍👍
How I see the SEC is if the guy coached for Alabama and Saban, coached at some point at Auburn or played QB for some D1 Power 5 team then they are fast tracked to a SEC HC job
Shows Beamer was a budget hire...
A budget hire that certainly panned out well.
@Claude Vaughn even Muschamp won 9 games Beamer hasn't done that yet... let's see how it's going in 2-3 more years
All do respect but beating Clemson is always a must win! What are you talking about???
All "due" respect. Also, saying that is like saying the Washington Generals have a must-win against the Globetrotters. Scotland has a must-win over England next week. Must-win. LMAO

I'm a Bama dude. However, if I weren't, I most likely would HATE Alabama simply because of how successful they are. Yeah I know accusations are always cast...that's a given. But I'm speaking, simply, in the context of winning teams in this particular era of college football. In my opinion, any coach or administration over them, who look to what's trending on social media as a guide post to recruiting, is, ironically, too in touch with present reality. (that's more satire than anything else) My point? We are living in a world where a fake smile on TH-cam,, facebook, etc., is treated as if it's some great, well earned accomplishment. That being so, how in hell do these "professionals" look to what's trending? Ugh.
It’s all bs and politics
If you thought coaching searches were well oiled machines after watching Auburn and Tennessee you're delusional
South Carolina is not the type program that can sell the program to a coach. They have to create their coach from lesser knowns and if they do extremely well then they will lose them to any of the perennial top jobs should they come open.
Nah beamer is a lifer. He lives and breathes gamecocks

there is only ONE HOT NAME IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL AND ITS EASY IS HE A WINNER?
Muschamp is the worst recruiter in SEC history.
He wanted to recruit Derrick Henry as a linebacker only.
Beamer seems like a nice guy, but man did SC take a chance on a guy who has never even been a coordinator. He may turn out great, may be a bust. Time will tell. I know that at UGA he was not a good recruiter, at all. Many speculated his move to OU was forced.
Every coaching hire is a chance taken. Some supposed great hires have been the biggest bust. Ron Zook and others.
It's so hard to tell on coaches. Guys win at one place but not another. Can't miss hires bust out. Terrible looking hires turn out to be elite
ANY coach will be better than will mustgochump. His agent? That's another story!
worked out so far.
@@zach6806
A lot of that is due to “Connections”
As Josh talks about…
And what we’re seeing now with Coach Beamer at SC…
He’s doing a Great Job of Recruiting because he’s got Connections around The SC area…
If he’d gone to a school in the Northwest he probably wouldn’t have as many Connections…

Beamer a bad hire???? As to Will Muschump who had one good year at Texass as a coordinator. That's it. His record at Florida and SC speak for it self. Beamer probably wont pull a Dabo, but he will do better then that all ego Muschump!!! Sooner fans here wiil be rooting for SC.

Lol Even Spurrier couldn't really get it going there as well.
@@sheepdawg8179 spurrier had like back to back 11 win seasons, beat Clemson 5 yrs in a row, and had a SEC East title soooo yeah he did have it going.

Preach brotha. great comments. I want to add something about the Elephant in the room. Not one coach of color was even on the list. So...are these list really about the best candidates??
I disagree.. when they first created the playoffs they made rules the committee operates by, not 1 year have they followed those rules.. the 2nd problem is Saban being allowed to break any rule he wants and no risk of getting hit!!! I gave up college football 4 years ago because every year it's the same setup shit... and to be honest giving up football gives me a lot more time to do more important things...
1. You “gave up college football 4 years ago,” and
2. you say you hate Saban because, in your opinion, he can “break any rule he wants.”
Seems to me that both your statements are false. Especially the one about Saban. Breaking any rule he wants? That comes from pure hatred and jealousy, and that’s the only place that statement comes from - obviously. Plus, if you truly “gave up college football” then why are you here? Are you just a failed USC fan? Hurting? Venting? That’s all well and good but the case remains that your two big statements bot the big one, friend. Just an aside, but are you Jewish? Your username, “The Chosen One.” God’s chosen people are Jewish, so I was wondering if there’s a correlation. God bless, and I hope your pain goes away about CFB.
For the manchildren who barely know sports. Carolina is in Columbia. You barely existed in college football before the past couple years. You bring in a dying Mack to fall apart ok later and you're going back to be a basketball school.
Carolina is in Chapel Hill just like USC is in Southern California.
I couldn't stand Muschamp when he was defensive coordinator at UT (The Greatest School in America). His whole philosophy was the more jacked up/excited you got, the more you yelled, the more likely that you'd win. He would get angry with players if they were not yelling enough. Yes, and the real UT, not that fake imposter from the SEC.
It doesn't work that way. I've know some great football players who show little emotion. The guy is not very smart, but he is smug.
Hook 'Em Horns!
Had a coach like that in high school and I don't think that we were nearly successful as we could have been. Emphasized issues that had little bearing on how well we competed.
