Gamecocks Work Out Wednesday Morning | Gamecocks Online
Mental note: Shon Carson does not make for an interesting interview. "Yes, sir. No, sir. Whatever you say, sir. May I go now, sir?" Steve Spurrier, Jr.'s interview is worth a listen, though.

In case you missed it, Travis Haney will be leaving Columbia for the plains of Oklahoma. Good luck to Travis. He gave us four and a half years, which is more than I can say for Tori Gurley, Emanuel Cook, and Ko Simpson. I'll have more on this later in the week.

Oh, and did you know that Haney is collaborating on a book about the Carolina-Clemson rivalry? I'm looking forward to it even though I still haven't gotten around to reading Gamecock Glory yet.

It doesn't give me a good feeling inside to complain about Justin King's work.
Because I really do like his work. I just think I could have used one video that was a little shorter and a second video that was longer. But, they were both done well, as always.
I just think one abbreviated version would be good, too. You can only hold someone attention for so long. And, I am referring to UGA and UF and Alabama fans suddenly on the wrong side of a USC highlight video. Now all we need is to exact some revenge on Arkansas for those Darren McFadden games….

I'd drop the HS clips
What you do those sorts of things to GA, AL, and FL. We really don’t need to know what you did against Dorman (or whoever).
I don't think those videos were done by Justin King.
The first one was definitely trying to copy his style, but neither acknowledged Justin King, I don’t think.
I will say that while I like Justin’s videos a great deal, I like them a little less this year. They seem sort of formulaic now. I was hoping he would come out with a different feel to his work this season. Maybe switch up the music or the editing style. Still, I’d rather have his videos available for viewing than not, so I guess I shouldn’t complain.

You're right, they didn't mention him.
And probably just imitating his very popular videos.

A little side note...
has anyone paid attention to how much respect were getting from ESPN now??? seems like everytime I look at the TV they are talking about South Carolina.
"A school without football is in danger of deteriorating into a medieval study hall."

No doubt. Of course, it makes a difference when you're a contender.
ESPN also likes the flashy teams, and we’re flashy with players like Lattimore, Jeffery, and Clowney.
