re: Beamer's recruiting

.reminds me of James Franklins early days at Vanderbilt. He built that program on enthusiasm and excitement. I see that same thing in Beamer. He is a players coach who is sincere.....I know people questioned the hire but when all of your NFL guys that came through endorsed him....that's who you have to go with. They know more than anyone what a coach should be.

You really can't dismiss the recruiting and the gameday effort at this point. Beamer may very well be a chip off the old block.
