Cannon, Shot

Don’t look now, but Beamer Ball might be making a return to Virginia Tech. There also is the possibility that birds aren’t real and are actually drones that spy on us. You can find all this and more on Message Board Geniuses.

Also, a comment asked the other day which fan base might most believe flat earth theory, and it looks like it could be the Carolina fanbase. Maybe Shane is longing to go back home, maybe they’re rolling a dump truck of money up to his door as we speak. Maybe Greg Sankey is an alien, and the CFP committee is meeting at Bohemian Grove. Whatever theory you’ve got, it looks like they’d buy it.

  1. Beamer’s agent is leveraging both sides. Why not squeeze more millions when you can?

  2. I think VaTech will make an even harder push than before to land Shane Beamer. It might be time for him to go there too. With Sellers returning, there were big expectations for USC and they were being dominated Vanderbilt even before Sellers was injured.

  3. I don’t think he’ll go to VT. He’d be living in his dad’s shadow the rest of his career. I also think he will have a greater change to make the CFP at SCjr than he will in Blacksburg, despite the much tougher competition. The ACC will soon be competing against the MAC/WAC after their big names leave for greener pastures.

    • Disagree, 8-9 wins at VT can go along way. Uscjr loses this weekend and they may pay for the plane ride to Blackburg.
      Uscjr is a delusional bunch. If the playoffs expand then being the 3-4 best team in the ACC is much easier that the 5-6 team in the SEC.

  4. All depends on the contract. Stoops maybe thinking he should have taken another job with Kentucky fans talking about firing him. UK, and USCe are the same type of job big expectations without the reseources to get there. I also see VaTech as being a bit slower to fire him.

    Granted VaTech has big expecations, on the flip side VaTech has a history of keeping a coach that doesn’t beat top 5 teams, just gotta make the playoffs somewhat regularly.

  5. Could be why they shit the bed vs Vandy….

    Who knows? They’ll have a coach of some sort when we play them. So will the hokies.

  6. the chickens are paying beamer twice what the hokies were paying the dude they just canned.
    the acc is about to get blown up so why go… unless they show dat man his moe-nee.

  7. Or maybe it’s just a rich Beamer relative that decided to visit the boy in Sakerlina. I saw a cute joke about flat-earthers on the Tweeter – “If the world was really flat, the cats would have knocked everything off of it by now.”

  8. Paw raised. It was me asking about “Flat Earthers”. The collective IQ of the chickens has always been in question. That said, some of the utterances from Vol nation give them a real run for their money.

  9. Their fan base zip code is the same as Fantasy Island. There history of failure is epic. Beamer offers them the best chance of long term success they’ve ever had. Of course they will run him off at some point. I’ve read there is bad blood between his family and the current AD. Based on that alone my guess is BigFoot is a good possibility as the next hire.

  10. On one hand, in any given week you can probably flight track most departure-destination locations. That bit has jumped the shark since Auburn to Louisville days.
    On the other hand, not for nothing is SC known as the Graveyard of Coaches. They come in, get a marquee win or two against us, can’t keep it going on fumes for long, and quit. Three national champion coaches (Dietzel, Drooling Lou, and He Who Must Not Be Named) have been humbled at SC. So sad.
