Spurrier is a good motivator of kids. He had a strong reputation at UF. He, like Saban, had problems leading and motivating pros at the NFL level. I don’t know his situation at SC but I would be surprised if he takes another job right now. He’s been around a long time and I don’t see him bouncing around but what do I know? College football head coaches make such big money and have a lot of power so who is to say if they offer him a bankful of money.
By the way, I do not hold the Saban situation against the Crimson Tide. The boosters did what they thought they had to do. His statements about Tuberville seem quite disingenuous given his unseating of Mike Shula after Shula was ousted just a year after a very successful season. Down here, Don Shula is like a national monument. Saban did a double-whammy by dissing Shula’s team and by unseating Shula’s son. The way Saban handled it was disgraceful, literally running off in the dark of night and not even facing his team after saying the rumors of leaving weren’t true. He is a very talented college coach and his team deserves their #1 ranking.
In my view, this upcoming game IS the National Championship
game. We will see!
I have to be honest and say I like Spurrier alot more now than I did back when he was at FL..and even then I recognized that he is a good coach. At the time we had a friend who was a rabid Gator's fan... I couldn't even be in the same room with her and my Husband! lol I would like to see someone of his caliber at Auburn. A rivarly is no fun it's too one sided, IMHO.
May the best team win on Saturday!! I'm hoping for a good, clean, smash-mouth, old timey, play all out game, without injuries on either side! Regardless the outcome, this has been one crazy season so far!
