Coach Steve Spurrier will always remember that time on the beach.

Prior to the 1998 season, Spurrier came across a Tennessee fan covered in orange and he just had to reach out to him.

“How those mighty Vols gonna be this year?” he asked.

“National champs!” the fan replied.

Spurrier probably laughed to himself and half-expected that answer, but he would have no idea how correct that mystery beach man would be.


Now that's a cool story.

I have never forgotten sitting out on my deck and reading that years football time and believing that we we're gonna win it all that year.

He remembers a lot. I heard two different interviews today and I was impressed (shocked).
