all 3 of us have 1 pick different right now ... the overall results should be updated that it's a 3 way tie right now for first place
The guy that got it is a TKPer.
I wish they'd keep Searels, but I support Fuente in his choices.

# | OT: Spurrier's "Open Letter" to USCe Fans (and a possible jab at CFB) So with all of this said what are your opinions? Was he the selfless hero he paints himself to be or was he in fact a coward (bias intended)?
As is usually the case, I think the truth lies somewhere in between. I don't quite believe that he didn't want the farewell tour. Spurrier's ego is big enough to have its own ZIP code. However, I do believe that wanting one of his assistants to get a chance to prove himself as an interim played a role as well. I was kind of hoping that when Frank's time came, he might do the same thing, and Bud would get the audition he deserved. (although I'm certainly not complaining, given the way the situation has played out)
My opinion is that he simply got worn down and the job wasn't fun any more. When that happened, he did what he thought was best for all involved parties and stepped aside. Whether or not that truly was best is difficult to determine. If the team stepped up and started playing better football, making a decent bowl game, it would be a no-brainer. Considering that the team continued to suck after his departure, and the Gamecocks still haven't hired a new coach (and are apparently desperate enough to interview Muschamp), it's looking like he didn't do anybody any favors.
Coach Fuente likes his Staff, then I like his staff. And If they Score all the points on Offense that they do. Whose to Bitch , Not Me.
ESPN would've given Spurrier a Farewell Tour even if no one else would.
Do we have our stats like this from the last few seasons? I'd be interested to compare.
He definitely has that "Offensive Lineman Coach from Oklahoma" look.
Not a shot in any way. Just a different way in doing it.
When Spurrier announced, he said that he saw no point in sticking around. He didn't want to stick around knowing he wasn't the best for the job at the moment. He gave someone on his staff the opportunity to interim, and gave the administration the rest of the season to find a replacement. I kind of admire Spurrier for how he did it. Takes a lot to walk away from the game you love, and especially to be honest with yourself that you are not the best for the job. Spurrier's main point was that he didn't want to delay the inevitable.
With that said, I'm happy with the way Beamer did it as well. But people are different, and there is nothing wrong with that. Just 2 different ways to go about the situation and I don't think either was necessarily "wrong."
We did something similar. Called all Hokies to the dance floor, DJ started Sandman and we made a mini mosh pit, which opened up when the Hokie Bird came through the door next to us. Mosh pit turned into a circle around the Bird, who joined in the insanity.

# | Brad Cornelsen and Vance Vice Will Reportedly Join Justin Fuente's Staff I see what you did there....
And time cop was acc coach of the year in 2011.
Don't get me wrong, I'm excited and think he'll be an upgrade, but time will tell
My wife did the same thing...well, the Enter Sandman reception entrance anyway.
I think it is safe to say, He doesn't date ugly girls...
Otherwise, loluva.
Pulaski Orioles before they consolidated with Dublin. For those curious.
My wife surprised me with Enter Sandman on the reception entrance...I thought we were going to consummate right there.
Glad for her sake she didn't pull out
I told one of my good friends, a USC fan, just a few games into the season that Spurrier would retire at the end of the season, because he hates to lose. He loves winning, and would keep coaching if he was winning...but he won't stick around with a losing team. I also told him Beamer is the opposite...retirement is also getting close...but unlike Spurrier, losing drives Beamer to do better, to improve the team. So I wasn't so sure Frank would retire this year.
Also, regarding that article...I live in Greenville as well...and the Greenville News is basically written by Clemson fans. That writer definitely wanted to see Spurrier lose again to his team.

# | Frank Beamer Once Wrote, "Whomp Their Heads Real Good" In a Telegram sounds inefficient to me.
also, in 100 years, you will have to add:
Kids, trees were large plants with woody trunks. We used them to build houses, make paper, make furniture, etc.
I read somewhere that Cornelsen was a Broyles Award finalist this year...to go from Loeffler to him is quite encouraging.
My wife surprised me with Enter Sandman on the reception entrance...I thought we were going to consummate right there.
Glad for her sake she didn't pull out all yalls shenanigans.

# | OT: Spurrier's "Open Letter" to USCe Fans (and a possible jab at CFB) I wonder if it already has. I think there's only been one installment of it since the OBC retired/resigned. It used to be a weekly feature that was always the highlight of my Tuesday afternoons.
Lol. When I heard this guy's name, I immediately thought of Lance Vance from Vice City.
