With everything that's happened with South Carolina over the past few months what would you do if you were the Ol' Ball Coach?

i don't think there's really anyone left that was part of breaking the rules....but i still voted for that because he can't pretend this isn't happening and there's really no reason to leave. i don't think anyone expects the ncaa penalties to be drastically more severe than what usc has already proposed. yes they were major violations, but one was an honest mistake by a dean and the others were tutoring kids when they shouldn't have been. it deserves punishment because we had ineligible players playing and some tried to cover it up, but it doesn't compare to giving kids money or anything like that. i think the ncaa's decision will be to increase the penalties a little, but not enough to seriously damage any chance spurrier has to succeed.

I don't think the Coach Spurrier is the type to dwell on the negative or leave. I am sure that he will deal with it in his usual manner.

The breaking the rules part is any past, present, or future players or workers.

He has been known for 20 years as running a squeaky clean program. I don't foresee us having to face this again as long as he is here. :cool:

Right. Darth Visor is a master at overcoming adversity. He'll go on to build a strong, respected program in Columbia. People will get beaten by his troops.

This is the first thread where I haven't seen bickering. I think I might put this in my favorites list. The bickering really bugs me sometimes.
