Of course, I was very excited (when Spurrier joined the Gamecocks). I thought it`d be a great opportunity for me and for this university. He`s very demanding as far as technique and throwing on rhythm, things like that. He`s a good coach. I couldn`t have asked for anything better.
- Blake Mitchell(Center Jeff Mitchell played for new South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier at Florida. Asked if he thought Georgia might pour it on when the Bulldogs host Spurrier`s Gamecocks on Saturday, he laughed.) I hope so, ... It`s just fun; I hope they do, because then you get to read about it, because he`ll start running his mouth. Isn`t he great? I just love what comes out of his mouth. If you`re not a Gamecock, maybe you hate him, but he says right what`s on his mind. He comes right out with it.
