Our long SEC nightmare is over. It was a (probably jealous) football employee at South Carolina, according to Steve Spurrier at SEC Media Days. Via Team Speed Kills;
"In actuality, I didn't do much voting at all. I didn't fill the sheet out." Thursday morning, saw it in the paper. Looked at quickly and signed off on it after director of operations filled it out. "I apologize to Tim Tebow. We should not have screwed that up." Tried to change selection. Able to change his vote to Tebow in today. "So it's unanimous. ... Tim Tebow is not only the best quarterback in this league, he's the best quarterback in this country." Apologizes again. "I messed it up. I take full blame for it."
Of course, we all wanted Lane Kiffin or Les Miles to be the offender, but that it was Spurrier and a mistake, takes all the air out of the balloon.

God forbid someone votes for someone other than Tim Tebow.
No matter how wrong it may be, who cares?

No. But if it was Kiffin, Miles or Saban I think every Gator fan would.

A coach thought that Snead was a better QB.
He might very well be the better QB – Tebow’s the better player, sure, but maybe not the better QB of the two. And every coach is entitled to their opinion. Now, if Kiffin acknowledged it and started ranting against Tebow and UF, then I’d be mad.

Yeah this is non-news since Spurrier came out with it and made it known that it was his staff that “goofed” this up but if Lane Kiffin had been the one it woulda been hilarious just because of the balls that would’ve taken (that we all know he doesn’t have, but still).
