    Georgia Tech coach
baffles Gamecocks
COLOMBIA. S.C. (AC) A newspaper columnist mi Sunday
called Bobhv Cremins "wacky " University of South Carolina
trustees questioned Cremins' mental stability And those were only
the more printable i ommonts
One i:ritic suggested that his decision to an ept. then rejet t the
Gamecoi ks i oaching job was some kind of bizarre plot to e\a< t
revenge lor forcing out mentor Frank. McGuire and firing friend
George Felton.
In barbershops and bars. the sometimes epithet*lm ed talk centered
on how Cremins had elated Gamecock fans with his annotim ement
Wednesday that he would leave Georgia Tech to co.u h at his alma
mater, then burst their bubble with hisannoum ement Saturday that
he v-'ns slaving in Atlanta
"Cremins. we all know, is a little wacky So as we learned more
about the mental and emotional gymnastic s he went through as lie
arrived at his decision, maybe we should have shed a little more
doubt on (Wednesday's) scene," Ken Burger wrote In '/be
(Charleston) Post and Courier.
Cremins said Saturday that to come to South Carolina would be
deserting the Tech players and his promise to hi* there for their
careers. Cremins himself wasn't available to comment — he took
off for a woeklong vacation. Tech athletic director Homer Rice said
But Cremins' wife, Carolyn, said he barely had accepted the South
Carolina coaching job when he began having second thoughts
"Bobby got there and thought. 'Oh my gosh, what have I done'"
she said.
Mrs Cremins said she and their youngest child. Hi w ear old Hob
by Jr.. did not ask Cremins to return to Georgia Tech
"I encouraged him to go. not because I wanted him to go. but
because it seemed he wanted to go so badly." she said "But oik e
he said he’d made a mistake. I fought like a tiger to get him (home)
and let him change his mind "
