If this is the spring practice version of Steve Spurrier's trolling, we can't wait to see what the South Carolina coach has in store for us during the 2015 regular season.
In an interview with USA Today's Paul Myerberg, Spurrier dropped this gem when discussing his team's 7-6 season.
HBC called 7-6 in 2014 "a decent year." Then: "In Knoxville, they’re still doing cartwheels because they went 7-6 and won a bowl game."
— Paul Myerberg (@PaulMyerberg) March 18, 2015 Of course, Tennessee fans will be quick to point out one of South Carolina's six losses was to the Volunteers. And at South Carolina, too.
Plus, you can also point out how much of a stretch calling South Carolina's 2014 "decent" is. It was a disappointing year for the Gamecocks, who started the year ranked in the top 10. And it even left Spurrier pretty much speechless after that Tennessee loss.
But while Vol fans can counter with that factoid, they also can't dispute the giddiness of the program following the 2014 season. Heck, how can you forget this video? And it was before the demolition of Iowa in the TaxSlayer Bowl.
Only 5.5 more months until football season.
