" Coach Steve Spurrier admitted during Thursday's media day that he's the man who casts a vote for Duke every year in the coaches preseason poll. "I've basically voted for them in the first poll of every year hoping it would give them a little confidence," said Spurrier, who coached Duke in 1987-89. Duke finished 0-11 last year. Asked if casting the ballot is his way of saying the poll system "stinks", Spurrier responded, "No, it's my way of saying I like Duke. "Duke University hired me twice when I didn't have a job, 1980 and 1987, so I owe a lot to Duke University," Spurrier said. "That's just my way of saying I like Duke. It's one of my favorite schools. Duke and Oklahoma (where Spurrier's former defensive coordinator, Bob Stoops, is the coach and Spurrier's son, Steve Jr., is an assistant) are obviously my two favorite schools after Florida.""

that is fucking gay...this dude needs to be beaten up

8/4/2006 4:37:28 PM

it is one fucking vote in a preseason poll and it isnt for his own team or a team who will keep someone else out of first place.

2 things in this thread blow my mind

1. people think this is a new thing
2. people think this is a bad thing
