Former South Carolina QB Phil Petty, a three-year starter for the program under head coach Lou Holtz, has passed away at 43 years old...
quote:
Petty led South Carolina on the biggest season-to-season turnaround in NCAA history. After the team went 0-11 in 1999, he took over as a full-time starter for the Gamecocks in 2000 — leading the program to an 8-4 record and an Outback Bowl victory over Ohio State. The team returned to the Outback Bowl again the following season and took down the Buckeyes in a postseason rematch.

They said they just wanted to piss you off. 20+ years later, looks like they succeeded.

He was legendary to SC. Just how we have players who are legendary to us, that other schools would not think are. Hester, Davie, etc.
