South Carolina is up

SOUTH CAROLINA COACH STEVE SPURRIER


  • On The Tim Tebow Incident®: "I need to address it right now. In actuality, I didn't do much voting. I didn't fill the sheet out. Some coach made a mistake -- a dumb, careless mistake -- by not voting for Tim Tebow. I signed off on it. (A USC staffer created and submitted the vote) I said: `Surely, we had Tim Tebow.' He said: `Well, it was Jevan Snead.' I apologize to Tim Tebow. We messed up. I messed up. I was able to put Tim Tebow in there (on the first team) today. I tried to correct it as best I can. He's the best football player in the country. He and Danny Wuerffel will go down in history as the two best quarterbacks."

  • Spurrier said that in 17 years, he's never filled out a preseason All-SEC team ballot. "Head coaches do not know a lot about other teams."

  2. I love listening to Steve explain this, he is hysterical!

  3. I would not have apologized nor felt bad like Steve says that he did. You can vote for whomever you damn well please, if the guy who voted wanted Snead on there then leave it. That is stupid.

  4. Why wasn't Steve filling out his own ballot?

  5. I think it's stupid because there is no fault in my opinion. Snead was better head to head. Big Deal!

  6. I mean, how hard can it be?

  7. Anybody really believe that Spurrier didn't do this on purpose to get under Urban Meyer's skin?

  8. He was playing golf. Look at his face tan.

  9. I just don't know why it's such a big deal. I actually agree with Saban for once.

  10. Spurrier said, "Danny Wuerffel."

    I believe that's a trigger for a swig of Diet Dr Pepper.

  11. "Head coaches do not know a lot about other teams."

    Yet, their votes largely determine who plays for the MNC.

    Great system we have here.

  12. I just can't believe that after that self defication by steve that someone keeps asking about it....I also like, "were headed in the right direction now". Coach, maybe you are at South Carolina and that's why youre not very good.

  13. Is there anything more worthless, useless, and unnecessary than a preseason all-star team?

    ReplyDelete
  14. The interview with Chiz on 740 AM was far better than the press conference.

    ReplyDelete
  15. If y'all need me to solve any more mysteries for you just let me know.

    Scottie - Thanks for the Gatorsports.com link! I've got live video streaming here in my office.

  16. Jet,

    To answer your question, preseason top 25 polls.

    They do a lot of damage.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Jay G. Run up on stage and show me today's tie!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Spurrier has definitely lost his edge.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Danny Wuerffel?!?!? Are you kidding?!? Oh wait - this is the Ol' Ball Coach just bein' the Ol' Ball Coach

    ReplyDelete
  20. Jay, you should "accidentally" stand up in front of the camera here in a few.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Sounds like his manlove for Florida has always held him back at SC. I bet his regret for leaving Fla is huge. Go Skins, nah.

    ReplyDelete
  22. that's what I'm saying, Matt!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'm guessing my gatorsports.com live media stream isn't so live as I now see Chizik on camera.

    Right?

    ReplyDelete
  24. RK ...

    The poll is a separate issue. I'm not a fan of the poll (of course not, I'm an Auburn fan) ... but it's a useless endeavor to pick the 5 best OL -- many times regardless of position.

    The poll is at least in the context of measuring teams against teams, rather than building some casserole out of parts of teams.

  25. EZ ...

    Nail on head.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Umm, well, Weurfell as the greatest? Ummm, yea, okay. He is right up there with um, wait, what?

    ReplyDelete
  27. Chris Todd as a modern day Danny Wuerffel?

    Discuss among yourselves.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Would that make Kodi Burns the modern day Terry Dean?

    ReplyDelete
  29. I don't know if I can listen to "the hat" Miles for more than 30 seconds. Have a great day!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Neil Caudle = Noah Brindise? Or Jesse Palmer?

    ReplyDelete
  31. But why, Sister Moniker?

    ReplyDelete
  32. DId anyone else want Spurrier to yell, "I've answered that question 13 times, I'm not answering it anymore!!!" That was painful to watch.

  35. Is LK on right now?

    ReplyDelete
  36. if Chris Todd can play 2009 like Danny Wuerffel played in 93, 94, 95, or 96 i'll bow down and kiss his feet.

    ReplyDelete
  37. does Kiffin seem like he's hopped up on Mountain Dew to you? maybe it's just the fuzzy video.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I don't know why Miles bothers me

    ReplyDelete
  39. Scottie is our video behind the live action?

    ReplyDelete
  40. i dunno. it must be. i was watching Spurrier this morning and JG was updating the Chiz. ???

    ReplyDelete
  41. Not sure how y'all are seeing into the future. Jay is blogging Miles and he is on ESPNU

    ReplyDelete
  42. You guys must be watching people in the on deck circle or something. It's not the main Media Days feed.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Well I'm seeing LK on gatorsports.com right now. I watched Chiz just before this. Not sure.

    ReplyDelete
  44. that would make sense, WERK

    Didn't realize there was an on deck circle.

    ReplyDelete
  45. this is the only link i could access so i'm going with it. i had a customer for a while so i guess i missed Chiz.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I think I recorded the audio to the Chiz interview if y'all want me to try to post it.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Absolutely hillarious.

    ReplyDelete
  48. LK is very sort of Valley Girl ish

    ReplyDelete
  49. What did u guys think of the kid that was an Au student doing the interview with the espnu guys.

    ReplyDelete
  50. What did u guys think of the Auburn kid they interviewed in his room. Terrible.....just terrible. The girl from Fla yesterday had a helmet jersey and all kinds of stuff. That Au kid was clueless.

    ReplyDelete
  51. didn't mean to post that twice

    ReplyDelete
