Having Arizona State and several California schools not far away must suck in the recruiting process. I'd probably chose a California school or party U (ASU) over them.
The bif problem with them right now is the fact that they've got an AD that's totally ****ing clueless. I think they promoted a baseball or softball coach?
They had two months to form a list, so this hire should have been completed within a week. Being nearly the first team with an opening and will be the last team to fill it, at this rate, shows how incompetent they are.

Having a lot of money won't always help, and the difference in $$'s between Clemson and SC isn't that much.
As for recruiting.....you are right, Spurrier spent little to no time recruiting, save for the big recruits like Clowney, Lattimore, and Jeffreys. In fact I'm not sure how they got Pharoah Cooper to come there. And in doing so he has pretty much crippled the Gamecocks...
If you listen to the locals, at the beginning of the process that SC was the #2 opening in the nation in regards to the Head Coach search. They put themselves ahead of everyone but USC-West. Some believe the University just believed that after USC chose their coach whomever was next in line would immediately line up to come to SC.
Now....is seems many of the faithful believe that Muschamp will be the inevitable candidate.
