Quote
Garcia was ticketed for underage drinking in March 2008 and was again suspended until just before that year's fall practice began. Garcia's fourth suspension was handed down by Spurrier this past March, docking his starting quarterback a week of spring ball for a undisclosed transgression during South Carolina's stay in Atlanta at the Chick-fil-A Bowl last December.

Quote
Spurrier praised the changes he saw in Garcia at last week's media gathering.

"He has changed his lifestyle almost completely," Spurrier said then. "He's been on time. No goofing around. He's very serious. He's shown a commitment we haven't seen before. Hopefully that will continue and I expect that to continue. I expect him to be a different person."

Then again, Spurrier has said that before.

I thought he had already been reinstated.

One of my business partners is an SC grad. He says Garcia is working on turning his life around and has given up drinking completely. I told him that I'll believe it when I see another game from him like he had against Bama last year.  :-\

Steve Spurrier says suspended QB coach will be back for practice Wednesday

Spurrier said by phone Monday that Mangus would coach when the team starts workouts at the Bluff Road practice field on Wednesday night. Mangus was suspended last week when police officers in Greenville caught him urinating in the street. Mangus was charged with nuisance conduct and has a court date on Aug. 26.

It looks as though Spurrier has no choice anymore, either tolerate all of this or do away with the football program.  ;)

I just read that the assistant coach who was fouling the streets of Greenville was fined a months pay, about $14,600. He also received lifetime probation for the rest of his stay at Carolina. I think the fine is appropriate and about right.
