Last week, Steve Spurrier suspended backup South Carolina Gamecocks quarterback Tanner McEvoy after he was charged with drinking and driving. Spurrier told the Post and Courier of Charleston that “Tanner’s back”. “Tanner’s back. He’s been approved to come back to the team. Do you know what he got arrested for? He told me … I think South Carolina doesn’t have that law. North Carolina has that law (about underage people not being allowed to drink any alcohol at all before driving). He got arrested for it, and he’ll pay his fine. You want him suspended for having a beer and he’s underage? How many football players would be playing if they had a beer and they were underage?
Classic. Same old same old….does it really surprise you? He’s both a hypocrite and a liar, as well as stupid. ZERO credibility for any type of discipline.
I don’t think he’s either. He’s never cared too much for discipline, unless he can get rid of a bust and free up a scholly. The guy is just a colossal prick. Simple as that. Spurrier and scruples are like 7up and caffeine; never had it, never will.
At least we know he’s ok with drinking and driving in any form now…..classy and safe! Basically what he is saying is that its ok to break the law in other states as long as its not a SC state law.
48 scholarship players have been arrested since Spurrier took over in 2005. Wonder what celebrations are planned for the big 50? And thats at least 2 per year. I hear they are getting rings.
he might be a liar, but hes not a hypocrit.
A hypocrit would have a do as i say, not as i do attitude
Steve has a do as i say, and as i do attitude….anything that puts his team in a better position.
