He changed the way D is played in the SEC. No other coach in my life has done that......yet.

I dont hate Spurrier, the SEC is better and more fun with him. But he shouldn't be taking shots at a guy whom, IMO, is a better coach.

And if Spurrier were coach at UGA but had the same record and results he has had at USC, many fans would want him fired.

Richt is a great coach and yet he gets almost no respect but he truest UGA fans know he's a great coach that just hasn't caught that break.

All I really want is Richt to get some of the love that Spurrier gets and I'm not even a UGA fan.

Spurrier is a great coach and he has made USC a great team but, IMO, it's time for him to take them to the ultimate level if he wants to be up there with Saban and win a NC at USC.

And before he retires, it wouldn't surprise me at all if Spurrier does win one or more NCs at USC.

That's horseshite.
Be that the case, then so did Emory Ballard or any number of people. Offenses and defenses evolve over time, each trying to gain an edge.
