No, I remember. This hurts worse. We had success. Success which if had been capitalized upon, would have led us who-knows how high! Holtz's first year and the year before were just bad, but there was no hope to be yanked away. No 'what could have been'. I'll be perfectly fine if there's never any official "recognition" of SOS.
i agree at some point he deserves to and should be honored in some way, but yes, for now WAY TOO SOON..
He brought three 11 win seasons to WB and 5 against CU and quit when his poorly recruiting staff and lack of coaching caught up with him
i disagree, he is the winningest coach EVER.. Beat the taters 5 straight.. He deserves to be honored..
Agree 100%, dang some people are just to stupid to get out of a shower of rain.
we would have to disagree, He is the winingest ever!! PERIOD!! Did he stop recruiting?? YES, did he give us the best era of football in USC history Yes, so you can decide, But i say YES, he does deserve it!!
Yes he did as noted but why bring him out now to a mixture of cheers and boos? Too many of the fans don't see it the way the admin. sees it. The truth is to me is that Tanner should have let Spurrier retire when he wanted to. He beat Clemson 5 years in a row but they made up for it last year at Clemson by shaming our players and beating us like we had stolen something from them. When got here and started winning we thought we had arrived to stay and expected him to leave us singing. Just like the song from the 60's says "Why do you build me up buttercup just to let me down"? ...lol
I agree Jeff but it's how he left us that bugs me. He didn't retire he quit, he's still working. He's gone so why not look to the future under a young coach? It ain't like Spurrier left a dynasty to continue he left the new staff with a big fat 0. All those records mean nothing when you left the place worse off than you did when you found it. He was paid handsomely for those years and admitted he quit on us. Bottom line is he took us half way to paradise. So he's the winningest coach at USC big deal he didn't have a high bar. Honor coaches who win NC and region SEC titles not one showed us how the other half lived then left. It's just my opinion.
Where have you been the past two seasons? Nobody ever said we didn't have some good years under Spurrier and nobody said they didn't appreciate it but are those years all you want? I think Muschamp can do the same things Spurrier did and more then leave with honor. Look, Spurriers bar wasn't that high you know. He had great years but if he had worked he could have had better ones but he just bailed.
If you don't agree with me then you're just not a Gamecock fan.....LOL
