re: Steve Spurrier interview on ESPN: The Head Ball Coach still has it

Even though I've always respected Spurrier and been proud of him as a fellow Tennessean and even warmed up to him as the years have gone by. This just made my head explode:

ESPN: Having attended high school in Johnson City, Tenn., did the fact that Tennessee was still running the single-wing offense keep you from seriously considering the Vols?

SS: I think that’s where I probably would have gone in a heartbeat if they had been running a different offense. I grew up a Tennessee fan, but Bowden Wyatt was in his last year and they didn’t fire him until after I decided to go to Florida. They were still running the single-wing under the interim coach [Jim McDonald] before Doug Dickey came that next year. So if Dickey had come a year earlier, I might have been a Vol.

No wonder he hasn't picked on us since we've been sucking. He's still a fan deep down. Even so, my entire world has been shattered.
