Spurrier, OTOH, can jump off a bridge for all I care.
Yeah, no kidding. Both of my parents went to FSU, as does my younger brother, so my opinion of Spurrier was a little... jaded, shall we say, when I arrived in Gainesville. I also think he's highly over-rated as a college coach. He had some great recruiting years and then combined with Bob Stoops to get lucky one year for a national championship. His only other achievement of note was being a modern offensive coach who got hired in an antiquated conference.
I have to admit, I'm a bit excited to see what Urban Meyer is going to do. I want to call him Oscar, too. Or Lane.
