Number two, we're going to play with a lot of effort. Our guys are going to be in such good shape that fatigue is not going to be a problem. We're going to play with full effort from snap to whistle on every play the entire game.

More quotes by Steve Spurrier
I really believe everything is here for us to be very successful.
Steve Spurrier
Our coaches want to be a part of South Carolina football when they win it for the first time. When they win the division, when they win the SEC, win a major bowl game, etc. The opportunities to do it all for the first time here make it extra special.
Steve Spurrier
We've got a support system that gives our players a wonderful opportunity to graduate. If they go to class and give good effort, they can graduate from this school, and I believe that's important when you go out recruiting.

Obviously my last two years in the NFL were not much fun at all.
Steve Spurrier
Recruiting can be a little deceiving at times. You never know what you've got until you really, really play it out.
Steve Spurrier
I think I've got an outstanding defensive assistant staff that's really going to help us have consistent, strong defenses. And offensively, we have an excellent staff. We've got some younger guys on offense, but that's what I coach and have my entire coaching career.
Steve Spurrier
If I had a defense like Hal Mumme has, I would be trying them on every kickoff.
Steve Spurrier
But as coaches, we need to get a little more fire and passion and be more demanding that our guys get the job done. I think players will respond to that, and we'll see.
Steve Spurrier
Will be the 14th time I've coached in Neyland Stadium. ... I've coached there more than some of their head coaches.
Steve Spurrier
In the offseason, why can't it be a little lighter? It's not life or death. I try to have a little fun, but all of my comments are true. I don't lie. If they get mad at me for saying something that isn't true, then tap me on my shoulder and say, 'That isn't true.'
Steve Spurrier
He was the unloving father that I never had, but I still craved his acceptance.
Steve Spurrier
In Knoxville, they're still doing cartwheels because they went 7-6 and won a bowl game.
Steve Spurrier
But the real tragedy was that 15 hadn't been colored yet.
Steve Spurrier
We all like to prove people wrong who say we're no good.
Steve Spurrier
The Pope is 77 years old and he's in charge of a billion people. All I have to do is put 11 on the field.
Steve Spurrier
But at some point, we've got to have disciplined play and have got to coach better. I'm not putting it on the players. We've got to coach them to tackle and block better. It's as simple as that. If we can do those things, we'll have a chance.
Steve Spurrier
Cheating is cheating. Some coaches believe if you can get away with it, cheating is smart. I have no respect for those guys.
Steve Spurrier
I don't think telling the truth ever gets anyone in trouble in the long run. Maybe the day after, but not in the long run.
Steve Spurrier
Football players are busy (with) study halls and tutoring. Well, anyway, at South Carolina they are. I don't know about all these other schools.
Steve Spurrier
Coaching to me is correcting mistakes and trying to get your players to think. If raising your voice occasionally gets them to think better, then that's called coaching.
