He’s still teeeting.

I never had a problem with him I don’t guess. Posted all the same stuff as everyone else.

from my understanding he's just changing the name of the show to SEC Unlimited....he's not going anywhere

I never understood why he is disliked. I have no problem with him. He's neither critical nor a sunshine pumper; he just told it the way it is.

He is now doing SEC UNCENSORED. His name is Chris Phillips and he is a graduate of Newberry. I imagine it is easier to talk about a conference instead of a single team every day.

Ha, yeah, post above called him a sunshine pumper. Saw someone on Twitter saying they’re glad he’s gone bc he was a Clemson homer.

Which is it?
I've never seen any indication of him being a Clemson homer. My son knows him and assures me he is not. So give me the reason people don't like him.

I think a lot of Fans think he is an opportunist at Gamecock expense. He will lean whatever way gets more clicks. I think he also trademarked "Beamer Ball" which really ticked off fans. That is why Beamer Ball 2.0 exists. Throw in alleged issues with underaged girls and old racist tweets that have been cleaned off his twitter feed........and there you have it.

Beamer Ball 2.0 should never have been released.

Many thanks for replying to such a reply! It certainly attracted a "dumba$$" as it was meant to do. Your wife must be a saint.
You make absolutely no sense. Please explain who "her" is and what "Don't know her" has to do with this thread. .

His voice irks me, if i listen too long itll give me a slight headache. But I enjoyed what he had to say. He wasn't a sunshine pumper, he called it like it was.
Are there any other Gamecock talk shows?

You seem to have great difficulty comprehending the English language. You should consider other activities.

I’ve heard Chris grew up a Clemson Tiger so that might be where some of the animosity comes from. I don’t know if this is true, and really never cared enough to check.

He does an ok job, but comes off a bit as imitating the guys on TV rather than being authentic. The SEC Unfiltered stuff is painful to watch so far. Basically just watching him try to connect with anyone relevant on Social Media from the other SEC teams. Not saying it won’t work, but he’s really not saying anything new or fresh…just regurgitating what he’s heard elsewhere. Which, hey, that’s basically what the journalists do nowadays so, more power to him.

Hope he does well, but think he walked from a decent niche to try to make it big in a saturated SEC market. Think he’ll end up making bold predictions and trolling fanbases to generate interest. It’ll probably work.

There is a side of this where if feels like some media is walking away from the team as well. Heath Cline, Chris, others…. Obviously many factors contribute to these things, but does feel like people looking for greener pastures as always.

He does nothing. He parrots other actual sports journalists and websites. Literally a fraud college drop out.

Good stuff.
