Steve Spurrier losing his mind.

[Christian Lowe]

After today's practice...

Before the season, it seems like every coach is in love with their team.

Steve Spurrier has been around the block, so he knows the deal.

On Tuesday, the South Carolina veteran flipped the script on the media and said everything coaches usually don’t: “Quarterbacks? They can’t hit the broad side of a barn. ... Receivers? They couldn’t catch a cold if it was the middle of February. ... I don’t know if we can beat anybody this year. Leadership? Nah, we don’t have any leaders out here. Guys are soft.”

When he was through, Spurrier and the reporters burst out laughing when he said: “Have you ever heard a coach say that?”

On a serious note, the Gamecocks leader closed by saying he still has "a lot of coaching to do."

His team might still need work, but his interview skills are on point.

One can only hope South Carolina doesn't win a game this year.

Don't count on it

Spurrier is a prick but college football will never be the same after he retires.

 

[YankeeVol]

He's definitely entertaining

Yeah, but if they lose to the Citadel and Vanderbilt, things are dramatically worse there than he's making them out to be.

I agree.

Spurrier is an all time great coach. I loved Fulmer but would have loved to have had the old ball coach in his prime coaching UT.

 

[Catbone]

He was joking, don't see any harm in it. He is a crazy old man though

 

[BeecherVol]

Yeah. He was just having some fun.

I'd pull for them over UF, Vandy and UGA since "meteorite" isn't an option.

Mike Leach will have to step up his game.

I agree. When Steve took off to the NFL the early season Gator game just wasn't the same. When we went down to the Swamp in the late season of 2001 and came out of the game with a W that's the most I've ever enjoyed a win in Tennessee history, even more than the 98 game at home and the 98 Fiesta Bowl. There's no better feeling than beating Spurrier as a Gator or Cock!

This! He knew exactly what he was doing.
