With Steve Spurrier announcing his retirement folllwing the Gamecocks 38-35 Gator Bowl victory over Wisconsin the Gamecocks front office went on a nationwide search to find his replacement. Today they announced they found that replacement by hiring former USC offensive coordinator Brian Krich.

Krich helped lead the Trojans to a 9-4 record last season. Krich led an offense that was ranked #20 in total offense last year. They were ranked 8th in passing offense and scored 31.0 points per game. He was also key in the development of QB Matt Barkley who threw for more than 3,400 yards and 22 touchdowns.

Krich said he planned to keep the current staff on, to keep continuity and they would run the same offensive system but he would be adding his own wrinkles to the game plan.

With Alshon Jeffery and Marcus Lattimore returning he should have plenty to work with in trying to win an SEC title.
