TigerBry to call out Spurrier on Twitter?

Jul 1, 2015, 12:40 AM

So I see that ole Darth Visor wants to say he's been on the "remove the Confederate flag" bandwagon issue for a while. That's cool. Nonetheless let's be clear on a few things Steve-

You've been coaching since 1980. Going by complilations presented by various institutions he's coached at, they show he's been coaching since 1980 and guess how many black quarterbacks he's started since then? Now, keep in mind he's apparently against racism so he must not have an apparent blemish on his record concerning such, right? Well, name one black quarterback Steve's ever had? Difficult, isn't it?

If the university records are correct, Antonio Heffner was the first black quarterback to ever start for Spurrier and did so in 2005. KEEP IN MIND NOW, Heffner was forced into duty after the other guys ahead of him were injured. Therefore, this left Darth Visor no choice but to start Heffner. Yet somehow, after over 20 years in coaching, it took that many years for Spurrier to actually start a black quarterback. Spurrier inherited African-American quarterback Donald Douglas at Florida in 1990. Douglas went through winter drills before taking the hint and transferring to Houston. In 1991, Spurrier signed quaterback Antwan Chiles who is also African-American. After asking him to change positions Chiles transferred to Liberty. Baffling indeed but let's not allow TigerBry to be the only source here by any means.

Regardless of my genuine disgust at Steve, please let me offer a perspective from other individuals. I'd be at a loss for one to think that my orange colored glasses are the only offering in this post. Let me introduce high school coach Dean Boyd who boldly and clearly predicted the outcome from the start of Steve's career at uscJr, "“We all know what Spurrier likes to see in a quarterback: tall, blond-haired, blue-eyed. I fear it’s not going to be good for Syvelle. Syvelle’s a good college quarterback, but he isn’t the kind of quarterback Spurrier would go for.” Apparently Boyd was correct as Syvelle was quickly moved to wide receiver to make way for Blake Mitchell. Mitchell went down with an injury that year and Antonio Heffner was forced into duty. A first for Steve.

According to some sites, Lorenzo Nunez is a four star Dual Threat QB prospect from South Carolina's 2015 class- who is due to arrive on campus later this summer. Gosh, given Spurrier's history, I'd hate to go out on a limb and say DUDE HE PROBABLY WILL BE ASKED TO CHANGE POSITIONS FOR THE BETTER GOOD OF THE TEAM. That wouldn't surprise me at all but keep in mind that they have little, if any options at QB. Nonetheless, expect Boyd's comments to be even more evident as I'm almost certain Steve will name a white QB as the starter from day one. But troll on about the Confederate flag, Steve.

Telling it the way I see it as always,
TigerBry
