Publisher Description: Steve Spurrier is routinely referred to by media and fans as "the ballcoach." He originated the term at Florida, often referring to himself in interviews as "the Ole' Ballcoach" with a slight southern twang. Since then, it has caught on and no other coach in college or the NFL is referred to that way. In recent articles in USA Today, the New York Times and The Washington Post he is referred to as "the ballcoach" as well as broadcast coverage of games and Spurrier features. It sounds a little hokey, but in a way so is Spurrier. A southern, old school football guy who has been known to coin other phrases such as "fun n' gun offense", he likes his persona and coaching style to stand out among others. In the final line of the book, ex-University of Florida quarterback and current Redskins quarterback Danny Wuerffel is quoted, "He's just a ballcoach. That's what he wants to be and it's what he gets a chance to be."
