There’s a joke in here somewhere about teams from Orlando claiming a championship, right?

On Friday, Steve Spurrier received some new hardware for his crowded trophy case.

When the AAF officially folded this spring, Spurrier told reporters that he thought his team, the Orlando Apollos, were the league champions.

“We’re all disappointed, but on the other side, we’re the champs, right?” Spurrier told reporters in Orlando. “We’re 7–1 and the next teams are 5–3… The players have had wonderful attitudes, and the effort level they’ve played with has been very rewarding for me and the coaching staff. We started the season wanting to win the Alliance championship, and if they declare a champ, hopefully these guys will be declared the champ, because they certainly are deserving.”

Fast-forward to Friday night, the now-debunked AAF’s Apollos presented Spurrier with a custom championship ring, and Spurrier showed it off on social media.

Thank you Orlando- @MichaelWaddell_, @TimRuskelly and everyone involved in the Apollos organization for putting together the Best Team in the League. Congrats to the 2019 AAF Champions! pic.twitter.com/5097YlYDma — Coach Steve Spurrier (@SteveSpurrierUF) July 20, 2019

Spurrier attended SEC Media Days this week, and his visit with the media provided some of the most entertaining moments of the event.

Steve Spurrier is asked about what makes college football different than other sports. He responded by reminding everyone the last team he coached won a championship since the Orlando Apollos had the best record in the AAF. He then asked the reporter what the question was. — Saturday Down South (@SDS) July 16, 2019

Will this be the last hardware Spurrier receives for football in his illustrious career? Never count the Ol’ Ball Coach out of anything, especially coaching.
