*** GET IT TODAY: The Spurrier Effect: How One Coach Transformed Gamecock Football

[Chris Clark]

GamecockCentral.com is proud to partner with USC Press for the release of The Spurrier Effect: How One Coach Transformed Gamecock Football.

When Steve Spurrier took over USC’s “underachieving” football program in 2005, he changed South Carolina football forever. Relive the most successful era in Gamecock football history though vivid storytelling by Brent Silvia and GC's own Kevin Miller

Featuring historic seasons, victories over rival schools, and the development of future NFL stars Jadeveon Clowney, Alshon Jeffery, and Stephon Gilmore, the book includes exclusive interviews with players, the Head Ball Coach himself, and a foreword from Connor Shaw.

The Spurrier Effect is now available in hardcover and ebook at uscpress.com.

Just want to say that Steve Spurrier proved that South Carolina football does not have to settle for mediocrity. We can be nationally relevant in football. For that he has my forever gratitude.

Spurrier proved that HE could be nationally relevant at ANY school, and we were blessed beyond description to have him. Get yourself another Spurrier and you’ll be nationally relevant again, because that’s what it will take.

There are coaches out there that can make a school nationally relevant. It just depends on whether you want to hire a proven Head Coach (a Cignetti, Kiffen, Cristobal, Drinkwitz) or roll the dice on someone who has never been a Head Coach nor even Coordinator (Dabo). It can happen with either type. But the later are fewer in number.

Yes, I know Shane has a similar background as Dabo. He hasn't had Dabo's success, YET. I hope he will.

He has no business being our head coach.
