Around SBN: Champions League Preview with Jimmy Conrad

God damn you, Steve Spurrier.

 height=Spurrier went out and hired former Atlanta Falcons linebackers coach Brian VanGorder as his defensive coordinator at South Carolina.

This is the guy I wanted more than any other at Texas, and Chris Applewhite is inconsolable at this point.

VanGorger was outstanding at Georgia and apparently wanted to get back to the SEC.

Spurrier first contacted Bud Foster at Virginia Tech, but he turned him down. VanGorder was then selected from a short list that included 3 current or former SEC defensive coordinators.

What’s the problem with Akina, again?

Sorry, you don’t have to answer that…

We’ve got TWO DC’s, every other program just has one. That means we’re TWICE as good as everyone else. In other words, rather than losing 3 games, we’d have lost SIX with only one DC.

You need to take a math class.

Six isn’t twice as much as three.

“Chris Applewhite is inconsolable at this point.”

He’s just angling for an Appletini.

VG is a good coach though. Especially when you consider we pine for Dick Tomey.

Ed Orgeron is still available.

Besides, we don’t want Brian VanGorder — Duane Akina has a much cooler ’stache

So does this mean Spurrier isn’t going to aTm?

Van Gorder’s mustache has it’s own theme music for whenever it enters a room. No facial hair is as cool as his.

some men’s mustaches have handlebars. His mustache has it’s own motorcycle.

Duane Akina’s mustache is far superior. Just wait until Major Applewhite can grow one!!
