COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — New South Carolina coach Will Muschamp is ready for his second chance in the Southeastern Conference.
The former Florida coach was introduced to the Gamecock community Monday, hoping to turn around the Gamecocks program that has slipped the last two seasons under longtime leader Steve Spurrier.
Muschamp said Spurrier, another ex-Gator coach, had raised the level of expectations for the Gamecocks to compete for championships.
The new coach says "that's going to happen."
Muschamp spent four seasons at Florida before he was fired after last season. He worked as Auburn's defensive coordinator this past fall.
