Beamer, honored as the co-Spurrier Coaching Award-winner with Tennessee coach Josh Heupel, which goes to the coach who does the best job in his first year at a school, said he wanted to confirm that Bowers is indeed just a freshman. “My 8-year-old son was in here listening to Brock and he said, ‘Wait a minute he’s just a freshman?” said Beamer, who stayed on the awards Zoom call after winning his honor to hear Bowers speak. “He was like ‘Man, I thought he was a senior and gone,’ and then he walked out of the room disappointed. “Can we confirm that he is just a freshman and we have two more years to compete against him?” Beamer said to the Zoom audience and UGA media representative Leland Barrows. Beamer also had a hilarious viral moment earlier this season, when he said Georgia had “100 5-star players on their defense” after the Bulldogs beat the Gamecocks 40-13.
