What good does it do SC if players want to talk about going to SC and then Spurrier talks them out of it? We're literally in the same place we would've been without Spurrier in that scenario.

Look, nobody at SC wants him to retire. We want him to say he'll coach here for 20 more years, but we all know that's not going to happen. Since his retirement is inevitable in the next 2-3 years by his own admission, people are saying that he should go ahead and retire rather than watch us lose recruit after recruit because they don't know who their coach is going to be halfway through their college career.

I don't think you've actually read what South Carolina fans have been saying in this thread.


I read that several people say he's doing more harm than good now.

And anyone who was paying attention knew he was going to retire in 2-4 more years. Why is that any kind of news flash? He's fricking old.

This has to be a joke? You are South Carolina. The only reason you are even worth talking about as a program is Steve Spurrier. You should wake up every morning thanking him for taking the job in the first place.


You probably feel the same way about the garbage man that used to pickup your Momma's trash in the back alleyway too, huh? I mean, otherwise you wouldn't even be here.

We, being "South Carolina" has nothing to do with it fricktard. Yes, we owe Spurrier a lot - he's made a lot of money and has been worshipped like a god but there are some danger signals out there right now.

You frickers ran The Bear off in the end so don't go hypocritical on us right now - we're not in the mood. SEC football is what it is and we do not intend to take a step backwards - it was too hard getting here. Spurrier is not going anywhere until after next season - we owe him that and hopefully the football gods will be looking out for him and give him a good season to go-out on.

This season was strange. Some fans are going overboard ... but don't throw the "you're South Carolina" thing out there fricktard. We've got every bit as much program pride in our Gamecocks as some of you little-dick batshit crazy Tammy worshipping haughty fricktard gumps do so don't be throwing that gump fricktard superiority bullshite in our faces ... bitch.

"You are South Carolina," my hairy white old arse. You fricking little vicariously living little punk.

"The only reason we are worth talking about as a program" ... is because you wanna eat my dick. bitch

Yeah, he turned down Auburn because he was hoping USCe would open up.

You guys realize that Steve Spurrier being the coach is the only reason these recruits ever committed in the first place, right?

This thread is a fricking abomination. I hope your program burns to the ground in spectacular fashion.


You seem dumb.

South Carolina fans went through this with Lou Holtz. We don't want to go through it with Spurrier.

People that are saying that are overreacting and in the minority ... the vocal minority on the Internet.

The problems stems from the comment he made which opened-up a lot of questions in the eyes of recruits and didn't make any sense to most of our fanbase.

Coaches do not announce they are retiring in a few years. Coaches have been recruiting with that line against Spurrier since he arrived ... ten years ago. Now, finally, Spurrier gave them the quote to use and it is being used against us.

It was not good strategy so it calls into question his motives and sanity at times.

Combine that with some of his play calling in key games this year, and his unwillingness to make some changes within his staff ... and then throw-in the decommits and it's going to cause an uproar.

If it was happening to Bama right now you'd be asking the same questions.

Don't be a fricktard and frick you for your "You're South Carolina ... the only reason your program is even being talked about right now," fricktard gumptard comment. You fricking hypocrite.

I hate hypocrites worse than fricking Al Qaeda and ISIS.

Well considering he didn't call the plays the last 3 games of the season and then made this stupid arse comment that has imploded our recruiting class, I'd say hes doing more harm than good at the moment

Yep, bad move by the OBC. Of course, 2-3 years of 6-6 seasons still equate to a lot of golf money.

Difference is that UT, Bama, and LSU have the resources to eventually come back and rebuild to be a championship level program. SC doesn't.


You really haven't been paying attention have you? If only you knew the before and after of what our program looked like before and after Spurrier, the facilities infrastructure has improved 10 fold and is still being built, we have a lot more boosters donating a lot more money, etc etc.

Yep. And that's probably how it's going to finish, too. The man is the winningest coach in school history and he's Steve Spurrier. The administration will allow him to finish off his career in mediocrity because he has earned enough goodwill to stay around no matter what.

I have this vague sense that Scrooster doesn't like some of the comments made in this thread... could be wrong though!

Spurrier deserves another year. He's a great HC and he has done solid work at SCar. But let us be honest, it is time to start lining up his replacement.

Sneer all you want, and I admit I never much cared for the Hens when we had to play them every year, but South Carolina is a damn good place for a coach to set down roots. The state loves their football. They produce a fairly solid in state crop of players and where they are lets them poach from some very fertile recruiting grounds.

Unless they go full on Derek Dooley SCar should be able to attract a very solid coach in a year or so.

A Juco is within the 2-3 year window.

Only thing worse than a know-nothing gumptard is a is a bone-smoking shaft-slurping know-nothing voltard.

I just lulz at how fricking ignorant you just proved yourself to be Voltard@ShaftSlurper since '83.

We've been consistently in the Top 15 of the most valuable programs in the country since the turn of the millennium. Many years ranked more valuable, (sic: in far better financial shape), than Tennessee.

So you too fricktard ... frick off and eat dick.

Some of the shite in this thread really makes intelligent people wanna quit reading this board at times. I mean it's like a couple of you fricktards are making it up as you go and really believing the bullshite you post.

It's ok guys. Spurrier said after practice that hes "back on the 4-5 year plan"

So that means all the recruits we lost are gonna come back right?

Right?

As a secondary fan of USCe, I'm siding with y'all on this. My little podunk town sent three starters to SC under Holtz and Brad, two centers and a DB. My family watched every game we could while those boys were up there. My daughter dated one of the centers, so she was up there quite a bit.

I don't want to see you go through this turmoil.

Good luck
