The Ol’ Ball Coach is out; Coach Boom is in at South Carolina. After eleven years of expert visor-flinging, Steve Spurrier will no longer grimace up and down the sidelines. Instead, the SEC will see a familiar foe, as Will Muschamp gets a shot at redemption through guiding the Gamecocks into their 2016 campaign.
The new coach inherits a 3-9 squad (1-7 in the SEC) that struggled in virtually every facet of football except for earning the fewest penalty yards per game (39 yards, 11th nationally), a stat sure to nosedive given Muschamp’s legendary antics. Examine this moment from Auburn's 2015 Alabama game, where it took an entire Secret Service detail of Boom-whisperers to get his pulse down to a resting 250.
