Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: South Carolina Gamecocks combines the great passion of the Gamecock fan with the great passion of the fan of Christ into one set of devotions, one book that is fun while providing a time of reflection about God and your faith.
• The Gamecock football team once made a decision that killed a bowl game.
• The greatest fast-pitch softball player in USC history didn’t even play the game until she arrived in Columbia.
• Quarterback Mike Hold told his dad he was quitting football -- right before he led USC to its greatest season ever.
• Ebony Jones went from manager to starter for the USC women’s basketball team.
• Clean air, clear water, and pretty girls -- that’s what lured Alex Hawkins to Columbia.
These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Steve Spurrier, Alex English, George Rogers, Frank McGuire, and many others. Their stories – along with legendary games, improbable victories, and historical events – are told with a twist: They are all tied to God’s story.
Have fun! Have faith!
Go Cocks! Go God!
