Investigation puts Spurrier’s image on line

OVER THE YEARS, Steve Spurrier made it easy to dislike him, particularly if your team was on the sideline opposite the Visored One. He delighted in taking shots at just about every SEC school. He ran up the score on any and all opponents and boasted about it afterward.
