Steve Spurrier: How Much Room To Talk?

SOUTH CAROLINA COACH IS FEELING IT … 

SEC Media Days is underway in Birmingham, Alabama, which means the Steve Spurrier show is about to begin … or continue, depending on how you want to look at it.

Spurrier, 69, is in the midst of a career renaissance at the University of South Carolina – turning a program that defined mediocrity for over a century into a bona fide national powerhouse.  After posting a middling 35-28 mark in his first five seasons in Columbia (including a losing record in conference play), Spurrier has gone 42-11 over the last four seasons.  That stretch includes three straight 11-win seasons, three straight New Year’s Day bowl victories and three straight Top Ten finishes – a level of success South Carolina fans only dreamt about prior to his arrival.

Perhaps most importantly, Spurrier’s teams have won five straight over arch-rival Clemson – which is even more impressive considering the Tigers have reemerged as a national powerhouse over the last three years (posting a 32-8 record during that stretch).

The “Head Ball Coach” is feeling it, too … as evidenced by the fact he’s back in the smack-talking form that drove opponents crazy during his 12-year career at the University of Florida (1990-2001).

Last month, Spurrier went so far as to train his trash talk on University of Alabama head football coach Nick Saban – who has won four national championships (including three in the last five years with the Crimson Tide).

“How many SECs has he won there in eight years?” Spurrier asked of Saban. “He’s won two. He’s won three nationals but he’s only won two SECs in eight years.  Now if you had the No. 1 recruiting class every year and so forth, I don’t know if he has maxed out potentially as well as he could.”

Whoa …

We get that Spurrier has plenty of room to run his mouth these days.  Hell, this website was ragging him out like nobody’s business back in 2009 … before he ordered us a nice tall glass of STFU.

But Saban?  The guy whose teams have gone 72-9 over the past six seasons?  Isn’t he one of the handful of college coaches Spurrier doesn’t have room to criticize? 

Of course in Spurrier’s defense the last time he went head-to-head against the top-ranked Crimson Tide, this happened … 

“The biggest takeaway from this … is that Spurrier is feeling pretty good about his South Carolina team,” USA Today ‘s David Climer noted.  “Even with the losses of Jadeveon Clowney on defense and Connor Shaw on offense, Spurrier is bullish on his Gamecocks.  History tells us that the more confident Spurrier is about his own team, the more likely he is to fire verbal shots across the bows of rival programs.”

Gamecock fans certainly hope that’s true …

Yes indeed. If you watch closely he demonstrates all the same emotions as Woody Hayes did before CORRECTLY punching that Clemson wimp on the sideline. The Clemson player didn’t even have guts to fight Woody.
The ‘ole ball coach’ appears to be a lunatic however he still has the ability to motivate his players.
I used to laugh at him until I figured out that along with Coach K and a couple of others , Spurrier figured it out long ago and will be missed.
Shamecocks still suck and cheat. :-)

He “Correctly” punched a player? WTF?

And a Clemson “wimp”? Charlie Bauman had just intercepted Art Schlisters pass to win the game, and later said that he didn’t even know Hayes punched him. I doubt you’d have called him that to his face then, or even now.

Wow, I’m no Clemson fan at all, but suggesting a coach was “correctly” punching a player? That’s zero class. Woody Hayes better be glad the player didn’t notice because he missed out on a serious ass beating he very much deserved.

If you don’t have enough respect for the sport and the athletes in it to hold back on cheering a coach physically assaulting a player, there really is no hope for you.

No SEC titles, certainly no national titles, and a few secondary, non BCS bowl wins.

The Colonel July 15, 2014 at 10:26 am

Compared to the previous 111 years, Steve Spurrier has done it. More than 1/3 of the bowl games the Cocks have played in had Steve Spurrier as the head coach, in fact, they’ve been to a bowl game the last 6 years in a row. In the last 4 seasons: SEC East Champ, 3 in a row 11 win seasons and 3 in a row Bowl wins. Top 25 AP finishes and Coaches poll for the last 4 years. Add all that to his success at Florida and he has run up coaching numbers as good as Bear Bryant – arguably the best there ever was.
Should he shut up and just coach? Sure, we’d all be a lot better off if our “stars” would talk less junk but like Dizzy Dean said, “…it ain’t bragging if you can do it….”

People tend to forget. USC won the 1969 ACC. Another year, had the best record in the ACC but was on probation. Might have a Southern title, not sure. In 1984, went undefeated in the ACC. Many, many other years after leaving the backstabbing conference, ran the table in football, or had, as only loss, Pickens Tech. There would be a nice trophy case of ACC titles had the conference and Clemson had any integrity. Problem is, we are so close, Clemson folk are getting nervous they will lose another trash-talking point. On top of the five bomb.
FEAR THE OTHER THUMB!

Squishy123 July 15, 2014 at 2:58 pm

It’s a nice story to comfort yourself with. But not all USC fans hated Spurrier. Even when he was kicking out ass. Lou Holtz told a story about how, when his wife had cancer, Spurrier arranged for Beth to be seen at the UF Medical school oncology program, one of the best in the country. And one reason the Holtzes live in Florida is for Beth to be close to Gainesville. There is a world of difference between Spurrier the trash-talking coach and Spurrier, the human being. Only an ass thinks the former is the same as the latter. Never thought he was a possibility when he went to the NFL and when he left the NFL. Yet, voila!

Squishy, you hit the nail on the head. The incoming recruiting class appears to have 6 non qualifiers. That recruiting class will now fall because those 6 were 4 star type players. Sawyer, Wideman, maybe Lammons, etc. Great recruiting classes are fine if they actually play, prep schools and junior college does not do the Gamecocks any good.

Reply

Who proclaimed USC an “academic school.” While I appreciate both of my USC degrees, in no way am I deluded into thinking they are Ivy-league equivalents.
While I don’t want us to recruit thugs, I’m more than happy accepting borderline students so long as they behave and can play football.

This applies to all major sports schools.
You are obviously entertained enough to hate the Gamecocks’ continued success, even to the point of pretending to be an Auburn or LSU fan while calling us names (dirt-peckers) that are more appropriate for a middle-schooler than someone who allegedly has a college degree and a job.

Jackie, the bandwagon fan… but aren’t they all.

Week 1, “FIre Spurrier!!!”, Week 2, “Spurrier is the greatest coach ever!!”, (repeat)

I know you meant in football, but you did say “win a championship. ANY championship” and they do have more national championships in baseball than you do. So before you talk shit, word it right dumbass, or else you look as stupid as someone from actually from LSU. Good try though Squishy

I don’t know who squishy is. But a statement such as ” stupid as someone from actually from LSU,” doesn’t exactly make you a scholar. In fact, I did go to LSU. I graduated. I played football there – really, in the late 70’s. I know a little bit about the game and what it takes to compete at that level. Football has changed a great deal in many ways. But in many aspects, it’s the same. Geaux Tigers.

“…which is even more impressive considering the (Clemson) Tigers have reemerged as a national powerhouse over the last three years (posting a 32-8 record during that stretch).”

32-8 in the ACC? Not bad- that would translate to at least a .500 mark in Conference USA…

And Dabo has filled Clemson’s with the trophy equivalent of a Happy Meal prize. So proud.

Didn’t USC win the ACC once? I guess they can just scrap that trophy… maybe they can fill the then empty trophy case with Spurrier’s Beanie Baby collection.

Such a clever and demeaning response, Squishy123. Creative level… scary.

Who said anything about the Tiggers? Just like the Coots, they think all of the SEC supports them as they bandwagon on other SEC schools accomplishments. Little brother syndrome of the short bus of the SEC East is strong amongst the chicken fans.

There is room enough for Spurrier not to run his mouth. He develops QB’s painfully slow. He stayed with Garcia much too long because he did not have a back up ready. His defense got a lot of those 11 win seasons. Our running backs were hurt most times. As much as Shaw is Shaw, his running the ball was dangerous. Dylan fizzled out against Mizzou. They were number 5 and most teams we face this year will be “5” caliber. If the O line can not punch holes for Mike Davis, a defense can put pressure on Dylan causing him to lose yards. It was a great bunch of years when Garcia left. Shaw stepped up, a great defense kept it close. After 5 years with Dylan, if he is not a Flacco out there…one one thousand, two one thousand, three one thousand throw, we could be looking at the back up QB for GA.
