Skip was the Steve Spurrier of College Baseball

Skip had the great sense of humor of Steve Spurrier but with a much nicer disposition. He liked to needle people but didn't take great pride in pissing them off like Spurrier did. But Spurrier could be hilarious. My favorite Spurrier line was when he was speaking to a U.F. Alumni group when Fla. St. and Bobby Bowden were caught in a scandal giving tons of free shoes to the players. He coined the phrase Free Shoes University (FSU). He said that he (Spurrier) used to be the most hated Gator in Tallahassee, but that he was not anymore. Now it is the Investi-Gator.
