Steve Spurrier Says the Gamecocks Can Play With Anyone, However the USC Student Paper Doesn’t Believe Him.
Posted by Thomas the Terrible on August 29, 2007
Yesterday Steve God Spurrier made a bold statement saying that his team can play with anyone. Even though it doesn’t look like he kept a straight face after saying that.
“USC football coach Steve Spurrier is striking an optimistic tone as he enters his third season at the school.
“We believe we can play with anybody,” Spurrier says. “We have no excuses.”
Well, no excuses until another player is arrested and “suspended indefinitely” which is what 2-3 days or something?
“We’re a very healthy team,” Spurrier says. “We’re expecting their (Louisiana-Layfayette’s) best shot.”
The Head Ball Coach says he expects freshmen to make a big contribution this season, including some of the top standouts from his top ten recruiting class this year. Defensive tackle Ladi Ajiboye and defensive end Clifton Geathers, Spurrier says, don’t play like freshmen. “They’re more like redshirt freshman,” he says.”
Well, you’re not that healthy with a starter by the name of Emanuel Lewis Cook, who has gun possession charges pending against him, just had an appendectomy. Louisiana Layfayette’s best shot couldn’t beat a pop warner team. Try scheduling real OOC teams like Tennessee who plays Cal & Georgia who play Oklahoma State, to start the season. I’ll admit that Carolina has talent, but their young and some will be in jail before this season is over inexperienced.
But what I find funny is that the student newspaper doesn’t believe God Spurrier. And who can blame them when he can’t seem to discipline his own thuggish & criminalising players?
So I profess on this day 8/29/07.

The gun charges are no longer “pending” and he has been fully reinstated into school and the team.

Buzz. WRONG from the very story about his reinstatement on WLTX.com

“Cook, 19, still faces charges of unlawful possession of a weapon.
An incident report states a USC police officer spotted Cook and another man, James Gore III, standing beside a silver 1999 Ford Crown Victoria in the parking lot of USC’s East Quad. This was about 9:30 p.m. last Thursday.
The officer says as he approached the men, he saw Gore attempting to hid something inside the vehicle. The officer states the men didn’t comply when he asked them to show him their hands.
When officers frisked the men, they say they found a gun magazine on Gore. They say Cook told them a gun was in the car. Officers say they found a High Point .380 revolver in the glove compartment of the car.
Gore, 21, is charged with carrying a concealed weapon in a restricted area.”
The gun charges are pending, by the police and they haven’t dropped the charges.
