COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Add South Carolina coach Shane Beamer to the team’s injured list, although he doesn’t expect to miss any time with a broken bone in his right foot.
Beamer acknowledged Tuesday that he “kicked something I shouldn’t have kicked” not too long after the Gamecocks blew a 10-point, fourth-quarter lead Saturday in a 41-39 loss to Florida.
“That was a gut-wrenching, emotional loss, and I was frustrated,” Beamer said in explanation.
He thought the pain would subside, but when it didn’t, he got the foot checked out. Beamer called athletic director Ray Tanner to brief him on the injury and “he died laughing when I told him.”
“I’ve got to show toughness and fight through it,” he said. “Been one of those years.”
