Taggart out at FSU

[MSUDuo]

Surprised it happened this fast but glad it did.

Back up as many trucks as you need to for Urban.

Urban to FSU

Urban to FSU

I could see FSU potentially hiring these coaches for their vacant head football coaching job

Dave Clawson Wake Forest head football coach
Hugh Freeze Liberty head football coach
Matt Campbell Iowa State head football coach
PJ Fleck Minnesota head football coach
Mike Norvell Memphis head football coach

 

[UTwild82]

Who do they hire when Urban says no? Maybe Norvell.

 

[DOCTORLOOMIS]

Urban to FSU

If....IF....he doesn’t go to Dallas, Urban is headed to Southern Cal.....

 

[allvol123]

Need a good hire to help cause damage at UF.

Hugh Freeze would fit right in at FSU

Campbell and Norvell would be the only ones of those I would be ok with.

Lol. Good.

They learned their lesson -- this time it will be a big name no matter what the price

 

[DiderotsGhost]

He's not been good, but I do feel like this is a bad move on FSU's part. Jimbo did not leave the program in great shape. Taggart inherited a similar situation on O-line as Pruitt did here. Probably should've given Taggart at least 1-2 more seasons to turn things around.

That said, huge mistake on Taggart's part to take the FSU job in hindsight. Taggart would probably be considered one of the hottest coaches out there if he simply stayed at Oregon.

I've heard they don't have "no matter the price" type of money in Tallahassee.

Urban to FSU

Nah, Urban is an opportunistic mercenary who wants to win big quick. FSU has to deal with Clemson, and Florida as yearly games, and along with in-state rivals poaching recruits, every other DI school in the nation recruits the state heavily.

He'll go to USC since the PAC12 is down, and winning there will be easy for him since recruits from Cali tend to want to stay in the state if they can get playing time.

17 million buyout. WOW!

The first step to getting out of a hole, is to stop digging.

if they were paying Fisher 45 million then yes they do

Why are we always told that we can’t afford to fire bad coaches or hire good ones. This dude had a $25m contract and got fired in less than 2 years.

If FSU can afford to fire Willie Taggart then South Carolina can afford to fire Will Muschamp

FSU raised about $20 million in private donations to buy out what was left of Taggart's contract, sources told ESPN's Mark Schlabach
Florida State fires Taggart after less than 2 years

 

[OleRockyTop]

They can get Chad Morris I hear he should be available soon

FSU might have a really hard time hiring a top shelf head football coach since they didn't even give Willie Taggart two seasons.

There is no way that the young ladies at Florida A&M are going to understand that Clawfense

Lane to FSU

The sunshine would probably help his health issues.
