Shane Beamer... South Carolina head coach candidate?

Following Spurrier: Six candidates to take over at South Carolina

Want a wild card? Beamer was a South Carolina assistant who served as Spurrier's recruiting coordinator during the program's high point. He left in 2011 to work for his dad, Frank, at Virginia Tech.

The downside is obviously the Hokies' recent record. If not for that, he just might be in line to replace his dad in Blacksburg.

But no one outside Columbia would know the ins and outs of the job better than the charismatic 38-year-old, who was born in Charleston.

I.... I don't know what to think about this. If he surrounds himself with top notch coordinators, he very well could be the next Dabo of the coaching world.

I told him I’d crawl on my hands and knees to be the DL coach at Virginia Tech. Now, all of a sudden, I’m sitting in this chair and I told him I’d still crawl on my hands and knees to work here. I just want to be here.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
β€œI served in the United States Navy"
