Trooper Taylor?

Can someone give me the cliff notes on how Trooper Taylor went from Auburn to Ark State?



Wasn't he involved in some type of recruiting violation and " The Barn" moved on with out him? Thought that there was a second position coach involved in that recruiting violation also.

You literally have no idea how good or bad assistant coaches are. Makes me chuckle to hear fans talk about coaching when they aren't there everyday to see what goes on at practice, meetings, etc. He coached D1 football in the sec at one of the top programs in the sport. Chances are he was a pretty good coach. Just saying.



Fact: When Trooper was the runningbacks coach, both Houston & Riggs got 1,000 yards in the same season.

Fact: When Trooper was the receivers coach, Meecham took a HUGE step forward as a receiver and got more than 1,000 his red shirt junior season and was a 1st round selection in the NFL.

He is definitely loved by the players, and has a lot of energy. I didn't see any towel waving, but he was whooping it up with the players.

It was a bonus to get his son as well. He's already making plays.

Edit: Make it a good one, or you're dead to me before you even get started. :)

I have not posted here much. I am retired now and my goal is to get more likes than posts. Is my avatar OK?

Meach took a huge step because he was finally healthy with a competent qb

he was a good coach and recruiter for us when he was here. I personally hated to see him leave.

Fact: He didn't have anything to do with Gault, Pickens, Price, and a whole slew of other recievers that were much better.

Fact: He didn't have anything to do with Garner, Henry, Stephens, Hardesty, Stewart, Webb, Lewis and they were all better than Riggs and/or Houston!
