COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier has closed the rest of his team's practices because he said too much is being reported on Internet sites.
Spurrier, who has invited fans and reporters to watch a number of workouts since he was hired before last season, made the surprise announcement Monday night. Practices were scheduled to remain open until the weekend.
"If it was just the fans, we'd leave it open, but we've got people reporting everything that happens and we just don't need to do that," Spurrier said, putting the blame on Internet sites.
Spurrier called it "another normal practice. Guys were hustling around and so forth."
