If we go after any of those guys, our aim is too low. We should go after Urban Meyer or Mark Helfrich. Maybe if the Philly Eagles have another bad year, Chip Kelly will be available.
It is too low. We just shot low with Taggart and the return has not been great. Go get a guy who has won and proved he can win in college football over a period of time. Hopefully none of the talk even matters and Taggart is the guy, but I'm certainly not holding my breath.
Like Skip?
Yup. Like Skip. I can't stand Skip Holtz, and don't think he is a very good coach, but I'd rather bring in a guy who has won somewhere consistently instead of someone who had a career record of 16-20 at Western Kentucky. What Taggart managed to do there was impressive, but does that mean he's ready to take the step that he was hired for here? Doesn't look like it.
As much as the Holtz years pain me and I think he's most at fault for our downfall, I still think at the time it was a solid hire. I was skeptical from the get go with Taggart and 2 years in I still am skeptical.
With skip if you actually go back and look altho eh numbers he was winning only 33% of the games against the teams we faced while at ECU (7-21). He might have done better now since we are basically in CUSA 2.0
