The Untold Romance Behind Florida Gators’ Legendary Steve and Jerri Spurrier—60 Years Later, Their Love Story Still Captivates
Advertisement
“Jerri has made me a better coach, a better father and a better man.”
Sixty years ago, Steve Spurrier walked into a little church in Kingsland, Ga., and put a $20 gold ring on Jerri Starr’s finger.
A few months later, somebody handed him a much more famous piece of hardware. One became one of the most coveted trophies in sports. The other became the symbol of something infinitely more valuable.
One was a Heisman Trophy.
The other was a little gold wedding ring that cost 20 bucks.
One would come to symbolize a legendary football career.
The other would come to symbolize a legendary life.
The Heisman has been sitting on a shelf for all these years.
Jerri has been standing by his side.
Steve Spurrier has always known which one was the real prize.
His greatest victory was never a trophy or a championship.
It’s always been Jerri.
Here we are six 60 years later, and this amazing woman who has spent a lifetime hugging everybody else is still holding Steve tighter than ever.
