Coach Frank Beamer was honored as the only Murray State player or coach to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. Coming to MSU in 1979 as an assistant and then becoming head coach from 1981-86, Coach Beamer was part of two OVC championships with the Racers. His success at MSU led him back to his alma mater where he coached the Virginia Tech Hokies for 29 season from 1987-2015. Beamer tells us of his start at Radford HS, then to Maryland and The Citadel and eventually Murray State. Coach Beamer explains his brand of football "Beamerball" and how it fell into place for him to return to Blacksburg as Tech head coach. On Wayback Wednesday, we talk of Paul Hickert's 1986 MSU record 62-yard field goal against EKU. We'll also break down the Racer football team, 3-0 in the OVC for the first time since 1997.
