Some people talk the talk, and some walk the walk. I think we all know who talked the talk...we were the Eskimos that thought we were getting ice...and we got a sippy cup full of moldy water that had been left underneath your car seat for 6 months.
Beamer is tenacious. We all know his feats in the DMV last year, and he's going to keep that going this class as well. He's gotten other studs from the NE as well. That's a new pipeline he has established. But one thing that was impressive that I came across. 4* WR from TX, Parker Livingstone, announced his top 5 a few days ago. Not surprising at all to see UT, A&M, LSU, and Ark as top choices for a high profile TX player. But there was an outlier...USC. Clearly, this is a guy that was probably not thinking much about going out of his region. But Beamer has us in his top 5 with a fighting chance. The guy is just going to chase down every lead he can. And I freaking love that about him. There are no excuses. I know it's just one recruit. But he could have said, "i'm not wasting time on a kid that doesn't want to travel". Beamer looks at it as it's his job to MAKE him want to travel. And THAT, my friends, is why I have a garage full of ice blocks baby!! I'm buying all of what he's selling!!
There has always been the debate about do you spend your time locking down instate knowing that SC doesn't produce enough talent to consistently compete, or do you divert attention away from SC and focus on more regional/national recruiting? Beamer is recruiting nationally, while locking down SC. He's going to have 4 out of the top 5 in SC this class for the 2nd straight year. And for the 2nd straight year, Clemsux is going to only have 1 of the top 10 in SC.
