Yeah you spend hundreds of thousands for a specific person (former players) and don’t advertise it at all. (Referring to the former player locker room only which probably cost tens to hundreds of thousands to create.) I’m sure they know.
Tories Gurley Blistered Muschamp On Finebaum this afternoon
- Thread starter midline
- Start date
I don’t understand why Gurley is the spokesperson for the Spurrier era. I don’ my remember him being a substantial contributor during his time.
exactly, and i think its pretty shoddy of the sec network because they had to know how that was gonna go down...they wanna keep us down imo
He was a good receiver when he was here .. I have my differences with his outside the program uniformed negativity
Finbaum's job is to create hate and discontent.
We have never done right by former players when compared to the Taters and other schools. Sad. Gamecockbarrassing
Sounds like Tori just wants his name out there. The best way to do it is to blow up and create social media buzz. Muschamp has incorporated new things to bring former players back. We even host a flag football game of alumni players before the spring game.
And who is Tori to say our program doesn’t deserve new facilities? Our players haven’t earned it? Sure they may have not won the games other classes have but they put in the same work they did.
Tori is concerned about himself, not South Carolina. That’s the way he’s always been. Even when he left as a redshirt sophomore to be a great NFL player... that never happened.
If he really cared about SC, he’d be talking up this program, not talking it down.

DJ Swearinger hosts an Alumni basketball game on campus every year, which Muschamp is at and helps promote. There has also been many posts by former players at the new facilities. Good try Tori.
DJ had also been critical of Muschamp's teams in the past, calling them soft among other things.
Were there not tweets of DJ at out our facility working out with Shilo Sanders this summer?
I think the relationship is fine
Most people would be soft in DJs eyes, he is a different dude

Gurley is a tool! I've heard that the Athletics Dept. or someone with football tried to help him get a job with the SEC Network, and then he goes and craps on them? Also heard he was offered a job doing something on the USC radio broadcasts or maybe it was on 107.5, but he turned it down because he wanted more money. For a guy who is trying to make it in being a sports broadcaster, he sure is doing it the wrong way in my opinion.
Tori is a blowhard who is just desperate for attention. Remember him “guaranteeing” victory over Georgia last year? His comments are inaccurate and I have on pretty good record that the sentiment is not shared by those players he mentioned.
He has not done himself any favors and I would be surprised if he is allowed to be around the program any time soon.

Muschamp is a bum! This is what you get when your board of trustees hires a jock with no experience in managing the administrative side of athletics.
I don't know anything about Gurley but the few former players that I am friends with are not Muschamp fans.
Muschamp and Tanner both need to be fired!!
Why blame the coach? He gets paid to coach. He's not there to play politics and stroke the ego of former players. That is someone else's job. Namely the AD. I'm sure they have a director whose sole purpose is to do these things. Leave the coach alone. He needs to coach.
I do. He caught everything that was thrown to him, if he’d played more than one year he would easily be one of our best receivers of all time. We need some guys with hands like his now.
nope not buying it. Seen too many interviews and videos of him and former players. Troll on somewhere else bro.
Well to be brutally honest. That is the very reason we blame the coach. Should Ray be held accountable if Muschamp doesn't work out? Of course. But Muschamp was hired, and is paid million per year, to get the program back to competitive status. So as long as he is on the clock, he most assuredly must be in line for blame.
I wish more of our ex players cared enough to comment. Seems after they graduate we never see them again yet you watch other teams with their current NFL ex players on the sidelines cheering them on. What is it we do to our ex players to make them ignore us
Tori was a solid player. Maybe not the most talented but he played hard and was a great down field blocker. Other wr hate to block. He played with heart
The new ops building has a locker room especially for former players. Former players have been on the sideline. Who in their right mind would invite Tori anyway after all the public trash talking and frustration he has shared.
Could be. It would carry more weight with me if it were a former player who was still playing in the NFL. Or at least one who had a successful career.
Maybe he's upset because his contributions were overshadowed by Alshon.
He likes the attention. All players are welcome to come to practice, workout and even have a former players locker room. I’m calling bs.
I'm not in Champs corner anymore but this is BS.You have to be currently in the NFL to benon the sidelines.If every former footballer or even just 1/3 wanted to benonnthe sideline it would be chaos.They built the alumni locker room in the OPS building and players are welcomed anytime.Inthink this is Tori having some kind of vendetta or personal dislike or something.Think Champ is a good person not a good head coach
I worked in high school sports broadcasting long enough to know there are some people you don't hold a mic up to their mouth. FinBUM used Gurley like a sponge because he was talking useless crap about Muschamp and FinBUM loved it. If I was Muschamp I wouldn't let Gurley on my sidelines either after this.
Stop ruining the op’s negativity thread. He wants to believe it. Truth is irrelevant
Lol......you people slay me.
Horsesh!t. We have former players on our sideline all the time. BC one person says it, doesn’t make it a fact.

That is your opinion. Tori voiced his. You are doing to Tori what you accuse him of.
Except that Tori has nothing but allegations in his opinion, OBJ posted several facts to uphold his opinion.
Not reading this thread, but screw Tori! Hope you heard Kimrey today!
Sure. But I’m also speaking positively for my university on the platform I am presented. He is not.
Yes, he is entitled to his opinion and he is on national television. I just think there was an opportunity to bring good PR to SC from a former player. He chose to insult and put down rather than point out positive things about our current situation.
And believe what you will, but a former player should NOT be saying what CURRENT players deserve. Not how that works.
Your post does not fit the narrative of this thread!!! You cannot post the truth!!!
Never mind D.J. being here last year and again with his family at unveiling of the Football Ops building.
Never mind Mike Davis being on the sidelines and brought on the field to be recognized by the crowd...
Oh, wait... that was the game that the Muschamp bashers chose to sit out. No wonder some of you negative nellies don't know what's going on with players coming back in, because you have to BE THERE!!
