re: Why is nobody calling Spurrier out on his bitch move?

Ask the USCe PLAYERS how they feel.

frickin' A, man...they've BEEN asked and they are okay with it, understand and support him. Move the hell on. We have.

why does any of this matter? why do sports matter this much to people.

need this guy called out

need these teams ranked

look what this guy said about this team/player/coach

boring. when people do talk about spurrier, people aren't even going to think about this for a second, they're really not going to bring up SC much at all

ole ball coach, florida, running up the score, talking shite, Heisman, national champion, and redskins

that's about it

I played division 1 SEC baseball and play 3 years in the Astros system

I get what you're saying, but he did ask you where you played college football

Because he's Steve Spurrier and other than the Bear he is the man who made the modern SEC, you don't call out a legend, you let a legend leave and you say thanks.

Put it this way Meyer won two titles and unless he'd actually died on that night in December 2009 he was never going to be as beloved as Spurrier at Florida no matter how well he did (it's the same reason even Nick knows he's not going to be loved like the Bear, respected sure but not loved).


Seriously, the man coached at USCe and went 3-1 vs Saban, he coached at USCe for a decade, a school that prior to his arrival was essentially on the UK, MSU, Vandy level historically (he has almost half of there bowl appearances 9 of 20), and he still has a winning record vs basically every SEC school. The man essentially epitomizes everything we want a coach to be and he did it somehow without going all robot Saban/Meyer mode we won't see another Spurrier in out lifetimes.

So to answer your question, why no one is calling out Steve, well it's no one other than a handful of haters has the lack of proper upbringing to do so. Hell, read Spencer Hall's article on him, he's right this retirement is Spurrier being Spurrier.

Another dick move in a long line of many. He won't be missed. Way to quit.

Just because Kentucky's greatest coach is best remembered as the villain in a real life sports movie doesn't mean you have to be a bitch.

right. you know what 85 random people are thinking because you played baseball

I wonder if we have any collegiate divers or equestrian stars who can chime in on the South Carolina situation as well

No. i know how they feel because as a former college athlete and professional athlete i know what it means to be a team and i know the role that coaches play in that team.

i don't expect you to understand... a coach quitting a team is a lot different than your boss quitting his job
