Garcia, Orth channeling Steve Spurrier as coaches now

More than once Friday afternoon, Stephen Garcia wanted to scream.

“I see myself now definitely saying, ‘Do it the right way. Do it the way I’m asking you to do it. For the love of God, please do it,’ ” said the former South Carolina quarterback who is now a private quarterbacks coach. “ ‘Please just do what we’re asking you to do. Pleeeease.’ ”

Somewhere, Steve Spurrier is smiling. No one crossed Spurrier’s wires more consistently than Garcia while the two were starting the Gamecocks on their most successful football run in school history, and there was Garcia on the other side of the aisle on Friday trying to coax the best out of 25 youth quarterbacks at the Hammond School while cohosting a private camp with fellow former Gamecock Perry Orth.
