I’ve been one of the biggest critics of Beamer but I gotta hand it to him on this hire. Briles is exactly the kind of playcaller we’ve needed.
Funny what being on the hot seat forces a coach to do. My only wish is that Beamer had tried to make something like this happen 3 years ago, but I’ll take it.

Not arguing if it will be an improvement, but an average offensive ranking of 57th best in the country doesn’t equate to the rep that Briles has as an OC. I’ve seen him described by some as a home run hire which is laughable
It is difficult to explain the desert Carolina has been in, offensively, since Spurrier and Mangus left.
If Briles is even an average play caller, and gets SC into the 40s of offensive rankings, they'll be a phenomenally improved program.
Aside from 2024 with Loggains (which wasn't stellar, merely serviceable), SC has been downright painful to watch on offense, while being relatively loaded at every position. 4 stars 2-3 deep, especially on the OL, and unable to do shite.

Outside of Spurrier, when have we ever had a good offense? Holtz sucked, Scott was supposed to, Sparky...well we know there. Jo Mo was more of a D guy.
SC has just never had a quality OC

We haven't. But the last decade in particular had been an absolute doldrum.
And when we've had elite offense (2014) the defense was softer than mashed potatoes.
