I'd say losing Harvin had as much of an impact as losing Mullen.

No Lol and I think Spurrier is the best of the three. Look at Duke and Florida. Those were big turn-arounds. Look at USCjr and the teams they have beaten. I realize USCjr may just be the final destinations for coaches past their prime but Spurrier has made them respectable.

Lou Holtz made them respectable. Spurrier made them arrogant.

I think Spurrier has done as much as anyone could have with South Carolina' s program.

He really didn't do much more than Lou Holtz. Holtz had less to work with.

Yeah, a 7-0 impact. All kidding aside, I think now we can all look back as fans and realize how special Percy was and hopefully continue to be in the league.

You really think so? I don't agree at all.

If the OBC recruited as much as he golfed, USCe might be a contenda'.....
Sort of in the same boat. There's room for improvement, but his tenure so far at USCjr. has shown to me that he is at least a decent coach and more than a product of the system he brought to Florida in the 90's. They get a string of three or four top notch recruiting classes, then you've got a team in the discussion for the SEC title.

Ultimately, though, it's South Carolina and that won't happen.
