Spurrier on UNC's Blake: 'It's hard to hide whatever your reputation is'

Posted Aug 10, 2010
Yahoo! Sports reported Monday that North Carolina defensive line coach John Blake's relationship with agent Gary Wichard has become the focus of attention for NCAA investigators. According to South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier, that article should've come as a surprise to no one. "We all have a reputation, especially guys who've coached 20 years or so. It's hard to hide whatever your reputation is." (College Football Talk)
