Don't know if this is indicative of their fanbase as a whole, but I was talking with co-worker last week who is an Oregon fan and lives out there. He was totally sanguine about Taggart leaving; thought nobody would really want him and thought he hadn't done anything at Oregon that would make him any more appealing than he was before he arrived. I even specifically mentioned "but what if the FSU job opens up" and he kind of chuckled. Bet he's surprised now.
Heres the deal
1 Taggart can recruit
2 He hired a great staff at Oregon
3 He was tough on off field BS
4 As much as ,some Eastern media think he was good at discipline and fundamentals, Oregon was one of the most penalized teams in the country under Taggart
5 Oregon was consistently out scored in the second half.
Nebraska 21-0
Wyoming 3-7
ASU20-21
cal 20-27
WSU 20- 0
Stanford 21-0
UCLA 17-0
Wash 21-0
Utah 14-24
AZ 7-20
OSU 3- 17
Yes Oregon out scored some lesser opponents in the second half, lets face it game time adjustments are not Willies thing
