South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier blew a gasket on the topic about his coaching future. That was the reaction of Paul Finebaum, SEC Network analyst and popular radio voice throughout SEC country. Finebaum was a guest on the Dan Patrick Show Friday, with Chris Mannix filling in for Patrick, and he discussed Spurrier’s recent self-created firestorm that was ignited at SEC media days in Birmingham, Alabama last week.
“I was embarrassed for him,” Finebaum said of Spurrier. “He came off like the crazy uncle in the attic. There was no explanation, there was no reason.”
“For whatever reason I think he saw this item in the local paper... and he blew a gasket,” Finebaum said. “Steve Spurrier doesn’t need to remind me or you or anyone else of his résumé. He’s one of the greatest coaches in college football history.”
“He turned a dead story into a two-day story.”.
