Early entrants draw debate

By JOSEPH PERSON - jperson@thestate.com

Many coaches wonder if the benefits of early enrollment outweighs the growing pains.

The past two years a freshman quarterback has enrolled at South Carolina early in the hopes of getting a jump-start on school and football — and never taken a snap during spring practice.

“You just look around the country, I don’t think it does a lot of good,” Gamecocks coach Steve Spurrier said. “Look at all the guys that come in early, it doesn’t really mean a lot. But they want to graduate early. They want to try to jump in early.”

Whoa. provocative article.

Some statements by Spurrier in there that I think are dead on. I can see some here that may not like it...but Spurrier is correct(IMO).
