Military family at USC game


Sep 29, 2023, 8:06 AM

So I saw the video that USC put on before the UGA game..Pretty touching stuff but wasn't there some complaints about Spurrier blowing off a father of a soldiers father at a Gamecock Club earlier this spring when he asked for one letter for his son in the Middle East..I think I saw it on gamecockcentral..

Yes. The overture this past week was probably an attempt to make amends for the jerk. Doubtful spurlid had anything to do with it.

Don't know about this, but I'm active duty military and coach Spurrier singled me out at a practice I was at before I went on shift. He came across the field and shook my hand and talked with me for a few minutes. Seemed really cool and down to Earth, thanked me for my service and took a second for a photo together. In return I gave him one of my squadron coins I typically carry with me.

Settle down and pay attention. They cheered when he told the crowd that he wanted the Gamecocks to wear out the Bulldogs (or something like that). That's a natural applause line. My daughter was at the game, and she said many of the students were in tears and cheering like mad when he came onto the field.

It isn't fair, not fair at all. I can't help it. Just like

when Smokey Bear tells me that only I can prevent forest fires. That is a lot of pressure you know.

Be strong. You can take the pressure.***
