Spurrier: You can win and still be a dummy

Spurrier: You can win and still be a dummy

“I read something interesting in the paper the other day about the Ryder Cup golf matches. One writer said, ‘Whoever wins the Ryder Cup, that captain will be considered somewhere between John Wooden and Vince Lombardi.’ And he said, ‘The loser will be considered like an SEC football coach after a loss.’ He’ll be the dummy. And that’s just the way it is. And we all know that. As coaches, we all know that.”

But in vintage Spurrier fashion, he didn’t stop there.

“Of course, sometimes you can win and still be a dummy,” Spurrier cracked. “We’ve learned that recently, too.”
