Muschamp to South Carolina Confirmed by SI and ESPN

[BusSport]

SI: "Auburn D-coordinator Will Muschamp agrees to be South Carolina coach"

ESPN: "Auburn DC Will Muschamp to become South Carolina coach"

Yay, they didn't take Lincoln Riley from us.

 

[romeo212000]

I never thought Riley would go.

 

[outofyourmind]

SC must have been super desperate.
They had half a season to get it right and they come up with this???

Poor Bastards

 

[Rebel]

So either SC has no problem remaining at the bottom of the east or they just have a thing for former Florida coaches.

 

[theboardref]

Wow South Carolina, I guess he must have impressed you with his brilliant resume at Florida.

 

[JuiceTheGator]

He'd better get an absolute genius at OC, let him do the recruiting and leave him the fuck alone...or find a FG kicker who can pop 'em through from 80 yards.

 

[romeo212000]

Glad we already nabbed Riley from ecu, or Muschamp would go straight to him.

 

[potzer25]

Sad to see him leave but can't say I'm surprised he left - anyone that declines an SEC HC job has problems.

...

but LOL at SCAR. I don't see what one year after leaving Florida gives him that makes expecting to succeed at another SEC East school, with less advantages than Florida, a realistic prospect.

 

[tducey]

Seems like an underwhelming hire to me.

 

[lilchi721]

I think they hired him cause they want to beat A&M.

 

[24seven]

It's a divine thing. The Lord wouldn't have named him mUSChamp if this were not part of his plan to make us champions.

We'll win the natty.

Bookmarket.

Yeah.

 

[Wild Turkey]

This is Muschamp's last shot if he fails he won't get another decent D1 opportunity at HC. He is taking one heck of a risk but it's tough to say no.

 

[MAIZEandBLUE09]

I mean, why would you ever do this? The guy got fired for being terrible after having pretty much unlimited resources at Florida.

Just to be clear -- they fired a coach who's won a national title for a coach who got fired for sucking....

 

[NinersFan80]

He wasn't a good HC at Florida, how is he going to be better at SC?

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

I was baffled when I heard this. C'mon, USCe! At least pretend like you're trying to improve, if only for @Huwaryu_in_exile

 

[BTHOtu]

We still get to play against that big douche every year. Cool.

Nobody fired Spurrier.

He quit, and now he's dead.

Yeah, "quit".

Appreciate your sympathy, bro...

I said this in another thread, but honestly, who else would take a job where you follow a legend, your biggest rival is playing for a natty, and you're worse than at least three of the AA teams in the state?
