What the hell is that? That sounds like something David would say. You're slipping. Never surrender. Take after Richard. Your team is always the best, even though you suck balls.

I heard Garcia got benched tonight. What now? Hopefully your D can float you the rest of the season. That may not be such a bad idea as those guys are monsters, especially the defensive ends. It won't be enough though if the O can't start scoring on purpose.

South Carolina lost its first game and its quarterback threw two interceptions. That was enough to inspire Steve Spurrier to bench Stephen Garcia.

Spurrier announced Monday night Connor Shaw will make his second start of the season this week when the Gamecocks face Kentucky.
"This is his game, it's his opportunity to go play and we think he's ready," said Coach Spurrier. "We're going to find out Saturday. Connor had a good practice tonight and, as most everyone knows, our quarterback play has not been as good as we hoped. We've got to do something."
Garcia, a senior, was expected to lead an offense that also features running back Marcus Lattimore and wide receiver Alshon Jeffery.
But was suspended twice in the spring for off-field issues, which partly led to Shaw starting the opener against East Carolina. Garcia has been inconsistent in his four starts and in the last two games against Vanderbilt and Auburn, he has two touchdowns and six interceptions.
That opens the door for Shaw, who was 3-of-9 for 21 yards against East Carolina. He also saw action against Vanderbilt and was 1-0f-2 for 8 yards.
"It's an opportunity I'm willing to take advantage of," said Shaw. "I think I'm ready to play. I'm excited and we'll see how it goes this Saturday. I feel confident and I feel like I'm ready to play."

my only hope for S.Carolina is we get a highly recruited QB to commit for next year, i'd settle for a great QB warming the bench that wants to transfer!!!!
but either way if or O can't get things going it's gonna be a long long long season.
Garcia has never played this badly...makes me want to punch a kitten.

What highly recruited QB wants to come in and play second fiddle to the Spurrier show. I would rather play at Kentucky and be a star than play merry go round with USC. It's always been that way and will never change. QB controversy is a curse of USC.

I won't disagree, but it is hard to believe that OBC can't find a quality QB. UF always had highly performing QBs whether they went pro or not. That's a broad statement but mostly true. He's never dealt with the Garcia type before. Not sure why he's put up with it this long.
That's just how I feel looking at it from a recruits eyes. I know USC always finds a way to get people to come regardless of the situation. Call it the SEC, call it the party atmosphere, call it lack of GPA req., but they keep doing it.

No good QB in their right mind would go play for Spurrier. The simple fact is he destroys the potential of all talented HS QB's he gets to play for him, because he destroys them mentally. He may have been a pretty good QB back in the 70's but hes an awful QB coach right now. He had QB's in the heisman race every year at Florida and how many of them have been good in the NFL? Correct answer is none, arguably the best Florida QB he sent to the NFL is Grossman, and Grossman sucks. He spend so much time playing QB merry go round and not actually teaching them how to play the position, which is something he should know a little bit about, that they waste their potential. He expects them all to be just like he was back in the day, and since he thinks he was perfect its an unreachable position.
I think Al Michaels said it best, "He's like a cartoon."
And doing what he does best. Riding around on his cart with his bad knees and embarrasing his players in front of the media. What a guy.
You can spot the ole ball sack lurking around 1:40.

Just a few of the Old Ball Coach's accolades...
Won one national championship (1996), and played for another (1995).
Won six SEC championships (1991, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 2000).
Named SEC Coach of the Year five times (1990, 1991, 1994, 1995, 1996).
First Heisman Trophy-winner to coach a Heisman Trophy-winner (Danny Wuerffel).
Won at least nine games in each of his twelve seasons, one of only three coaches in major college history to do so.
Averaged more than ten wins per season.
Ranked in the final top fifteen in each of his twelve seasons, including nine top-ten finishes, five final top-five rankings, and an average end-of-season ranking of 6.8.
Appeared among the top twenty-five teams in the weekly polls 202 of a possible 203 weeks, including each of his last 202 consecutive weeks. The Gators were ranked number one in the polls twenty-nine times, appeared among the top five team for 117 weeks, and among the nation's top ten teams for 179 weeks.
Appeared in a bowl game in each of his last eleven seasons, one of only five schools to do so during the same time period.

One of only two coaches in major college history to win ten or more games in six consecutive seasons (1993–1998).
Only college football team to score at least 500 points, including bowl games, for four consecutive years (1993–1996) since the NCAA began keeping statistics in 1937.
Also took Duke to their only bowl game and won the ACC title...
How many of those has Dabo (queer name) done? How many will he do? I have personally met Steve Spurrier and he is as nice of a person as you would ever want to meet. We had dinner with him in Johnson City, I noticed him at a restaurant and just went over to say hi (my family is all University of Tennessee, so that was sacrilege for them) and he invited us to sit and eat, and paid for our dinner. That shocked the s*** out of my UT family. Any ways, he's a tough coach and most attack him, but not withstanding he's done more in his life than most FBS coaches ever will....

University of Tennessee sucks. Even we beat them last year.
Chuck told me to tell you he is offended by Jay's gay comments. He is heartbroken.

14 (if I counted right) more reasons to hate the 'ol ball sack.
I couldn't have dinner with him... not without a bucket handy.
Dabo walked on at Alabama and was an important part of their receiving corp in 1992 when they won a national championship. Which is more impressive cause it took hard work. Only time will tell if he wins one as a coach.
Dabo will hopefully never win an SEC Championship cause hopefully he stays at Clemson and is successful there. But I'm confident he will get a few ACC titles and COY in there before to long.
I like how you use Danny Wuerffel as an achievement, that in itself should discredit your whole argument.
Most everything else is just fluff or uncomparable since Spurrier has been a coach for like 25 yrs and Dabo for 4. Who cares if they scored 500 pts in a year? Its also funny that almost none of your Spurrier resume has anything to do with his tenure in Columbia. Why don't you just say "Spurrier was a great coach at Florida".
Dabo is a nickname.
