An Open Letter to Steve Spurrier…
Really, Steve Spurrier? You really expect us to believe that you had no idea you didn’t vote for Tim Tebow?
Really???
And you really expect us to believe that you didn’t know it until a couple of days ago? The press has been all over “Who-didn’t-vote-for-Tebow Gate” since the poll was made public.
So really, you expect us to believe that you just found out???
Really???
What I think is that if things really happened the way you say they did, that you would have made a call well before SEC Media Days to try to right the wrong. That you would have at least tried to resolve the issue quietly. That you would have a new Director of Operations by now.
But I guess what surprises me most is that you didn’t just walk in to media days and say, “I’m the one that didn’t vote for Tebow. I think I could do more with Jevan Snead. And if you don’t like it, then you can go to Hell!”
Now that would be the Spurrier that we all know and secretly love. That would be the Spurrier that we get a kick out of watching. That would be the Spurrier that we’ve come to expect - the one who does things his own way and doesn’t give a shit about what anyone else thinks about it.
But this Spurrier who apologizes??? Who is he???
Maybe you are worried about hurting your ties to Florida. But you weren’t really worried about that when you called out Urban Meyer and said he’d go to Notre Dame, now were you?
Or maybe things really did happen the way you say they did and the other person filled in the ballot. But if that’s the case, then I think I’m equally disappointed.
