Let me just say...Im completely stoked that Steve is getting the hello out of Florida. I am also elated that his last year with Univ of Florida he got spanked by Tennessee (yes Im partial, but zip it hehe).
For the person who said she knew Steve Spurrier personally...I offer my condolences. I twirled in the UT Band for 4 years and I have to tell you - the trips to the swamp were scary and horrible. Fans threw glass bottles of URINE at us...screamed obscenities (or however you spell it)...even the guys on the team would rough their way around us - pushing us -sometimes down on the ground - just to get around us at halftime. Im sorry but when a 300lbs guy pushes a 115 lb girl on the ground, and the coach looks and laughs...there is nothing "honest, funny, caring" about him. The female band members and cheerleaders had to be surrounded by police or other male members at all times because of the fear that is known as Florida football.
I hope that now he is leaving...some respect, grace, and positive attitudes will somehow be reinstated in the Florida football team.
Oh yeah, I thought it was reported that he wants to go to Jacksonville Jaguars.
Also, I hope Florida will now be able to play some more...how should I say...challenging games. Everyone always brags about how awesome the team is...and yes they do play well. But they choose a joke of a schedule. I mean how challenging is playing LA Monroe or MTSU...lol. come on! Maybe with a new coach..he will want to really earn a title.
Please note, I know everyone at the University of Florida does not participate in the type of mean/cruel behavior I have experienced. I am not generalizing the entire state of Florida hehe. I usually root for everyone in the SEC BUT Florida...I hope now with a new coach, I can add them to the list.
Please dont jump on me - Im just giddy from the news
