Derailed his NFL career in a hurry!

It might have also had something to do with the fact that he worked for at the time the most dysfunctional team in the NFL. Spurrier also says that his second year, neither he or his coaches were even allowed to pick the players, and at that moment he knew it was over. He has said this in interviews all the time..He is also surprisingly not bitter about his time here.
