In some ways, Will Muschamp and Steve Spurrier will always be linked.
Both men were head coaches at Florida and South Carolina, an oddity to say the least. Muschamp followed Spurrier at South Carolina. He came a few coaches after Spurrier in Gainesville, but the specter of Spurrier’s offensive era in some ways still loomed over his defensive style.
And as Muschamp prepares to coach his former team, a subject he’s not talking much about, he got a call from the man who preceded him.
“I talked to coach Spurrier Sunday night,” Muschamp said.
