"COLUMBIA --
If ESPN's GameDay ever returns to Columbia, and that appears to be a big 'if', it would make for good theater.

When South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier called out announcer Chris Fowler on Tuesday for misquoting him, it was the latest salvo in what has been an occasional feud since Spurrier was hired three years ago.

Now the South Carolina athletics department is trying to have some fun at the expense of ESPN analyst Lee Corso. But Corso and Fowler do not appear amused.

Fowler expressed concern that USC has started a web site called letsshowcorso.com, where fans can throw footballs at a likeness of Corso. Gamecock fans have been mad at Corso since the former coach declared Spurrier never would win an SEC title at South Carolina, "even if he coaches here 400 years.""

I promise I will lay off the Spurrier stuff, but I thought this quote from the article was really funny since most of us will agree that Corso has Spurrier beat in terms of big mouths and abrasive opinions:

"The web site features video from a GameDay broadcast two years ago in Columbia in which Corso makes his declaration that Spurrier would not be able to recruit well enough at South Carolina to beat certain teams. As Corso mentions Tennessee, Florida and Clemson, video is shown of USC beating each team the last two years."
