Spurrier is entertaining but he is ultimately a dirtbag. This is why people respect his mouth but don't respect his career.
Yeah, he only won a Heisman as a player, then took a program that was a historical loser and turned them into one of the better programs in the SEC.
You know, that team LSU fans cry about having to play every year?

Here's a story about his Heisman winning year.
quote:
The seventh-ranked 1966 Florida Gators entered the game with a 7–0 record and the opportunity to clinch a share of their first-ever SEC title. The Gators' senior quarterback, Steve Spurrier, had just locked up the Heisman trophy the previous week with a stellar performance versus the Auburn Tigers. The Georgia-Florida game turned out very differently, however, as the Bulldogs defense dominated the game, and Spurrier threw three interceptions in the 27–10 Georgia victory. All-American defensive tackle Bill Stanfill would later reference Spurrier in recounting his experiences growing up on a farm in southwest Georgia before the advent of weightlifting: "Holding pigs for my dad to castrate was quite a challenge. I can't say that helped prepare me for football, but it sure did remind me an awful lot of sacking Steve Spurrier."
