No.

He practically reinvented the way the league played football and was mega-elite for wins and SEC titles for a decade, but he's not in the same class as the others. If he had stayed at UF 10 more years...maybe.

Regardless though, he's a top 10 SEC coach of all time WITHOUT question.

His South Carolina tenure has hurt him big time.

Disagree. The most impressive thing about Spurrier is his stint at USC honestly. No offense to USC(they will likely admit this) they were one of the worse major football programs of all time, and spurrier has taken them to 10 win seasons and top 10 rankings. Think about that
