re: South Carolina has been a solid above average program since 2010, correct?

They got those wins in the east. Hardly elite.
yeah, the East is so easy. A&M practically owns the East now at 2-2

They are honestly a bi-product of a couple key things.
1. They have one of the best SEC coaches in the history of the league. Top 5 for sure.
2. They have had said coach during a run that has seen Tennessee at their all time worst and Florida has certainly been their worst in the past 30 years.
Those two things combining at just the right time has allowed their program to rise up and become a top 25 program. I think it is going to be a top 25 program post Spurrier, but it will take a lot of good decisions to keep it at that status. They certainly have used their success to build facilities and a brand that will help their staying power, but if they just expect to stay in the 9-10 win realm just because they are USC post Spurrier they are greatly mistaken.
TN is on their way back and Florida will be back shortly after Muschamp is fired. This will coinside with Spurrier retiring and they will go back to fighting Missouri for 4th best program in the East.
