Spurrier takes a swipe at Mac.

“Sitting up there watching how inept the Gator offense was, it got me to thinking that maybe I’m wasting whatever coaching ability I have."

Jim McElwain's Gator offense was so bad, it made Steve Spurrier want to coach Orlando's new pro team

That quote is just as relevant this year.

And next.

And the year after.

It wasn't just the offensive genius. It wasn't just the titles. It was also the sense of Gator family that Steve Spurrier always had built around him that made it special. It lives on.
