re: Spurrier "joking" about his team in August

Have you ever considered that this decision was actually made for the benefit of Sakerlina's program and not for himself?

I tried making that point but I think he's completely unwilling to entertain that thought.

I'm sure, in hindsight, that Spurrier wishes he had left at the end of the 2014 season. He realizes now he should have. So, now realizing that, he's supposed to hang around for 6 more games because of commitments made to players and because hanging around would somehow be better for the program?

I guess he could have announced he was leaving at year's end now and let the coaching search begin. Then he'd be a lame duck. Is that somehow better? Either way, he'd be leaving.

The real question is why some non-Carolina fans burn so much energy getting their panties in a wad about it.
