  1. We are going to make this interesting. Hope we can pull this out! Go Bulls!!
  2. Being out hustled, not hitting shots, and to top it off the refs blow. Turrible
  3. play the hot hand and save them for a couple more minutes
  4. Games are more than 1 half. Hopefully we adjust and get the W!
  5. Have all our games this season had strange officiating? The calls seem off balance.
  6. These guys make the SEC sound the gods of college sports. Isn't that ESPNs job? Rolling Stone may need to write another article
  7. It certainly does. He appears to have deep ties to Texas and he's at a school with history. I wonder how he will recruit? (not that it matters to us directly) It feels like we may be the last shoe to drop. If we are going head to head with Oviedo high for a coach I like that may not go well. It seems like half our conference has either changed coaches or are on an up swing. I hope we don't miss the boat.
  8. How much do you think they will improve next year? What do you think this does to our position at the bottom? http://m.espn.go.com/general/story?storyId=11964789&city=dallas&src=desktop
  9. Next year Taggart unleashes Evan Wilson and Adam Robles. Then admits he never tried to coach White or Bench.
  10. When Adams, Bronson and McCants hit the field next year our core receivers will be Taggart's guys. The rbs and qbs are already his guys. If that offensive can't produce it will be his failure to own, there will be no where to hide.
  11. Well your fans wanted to model USF after the canes, guess what, they did. Playing in an NFL stadium with no fan support. As to UCF offense, the first and second string RB's were out, the starting center was out as well as the best WR was out. But hey I see what you guys thought, go USiF. gtf off our boards troll. I think we have all had enough of you ucif peckerheads and your bs. For years usf fans dishes it out, now take it. By the way UCF is not if, we have the trophies to prove it. Omg you guys had a winning season and now your bama? That's great. What pleasure do you classy gents derive from being jackasses? GOL may think your team is classy but we all know your fans are as classy as a trailer park prostitute.

  13. If we lose to famu I may just explode. I find it hard to see how we win 4 next year. Tulane, Uconn, and Tulsa may be tough games next year.
  14. Can we sell the program "as is" to Florida Gulf Coast or U of West Florida and start from scratch again? As a UWF alumni, suck my **** if you think I'm buying this **** show. So when do we send Taggart to Ft. Myers?
  15. Taggart has proven that he is not the man for the job, but this team is far from oozing with talent. Not arguing that. I know we are not the most talented, but still the talent that is there isn't being honed.
  16. My take away is that Harlan knows what needs to be done and doesn't rely on message boards and instant satisfaction. If it's better for the program, Taggart's gone... if not, Taggart gets another year I don't see how keeping him is better for the program. His philosophy is boring, doesn't work here and is driving fans away. Are they looking to see how few season tickets they can get next year? Easy: 1) Affordability. He's the one that knows more than anyone else whether or not USF can even afford bringing in a new coach 2) I've heard many arguments (from talk shows, news, even from other struggling programs long long ago) that firing a new coach that doesn't succeed fairly early makes it more difficult to bring other quality coaches. Most coaches probably agree (based on new coach speeches) that the first year is usually a rebuilding year and is a throw away. So now if the program doesn't produce the 2nd year they are kicked out...? Coaches want time to build up a bad program. 3) Related to #2... Harlan may have already sent out feelers and know what's currently available. Agree with points 1 & 2. In year 2 there needs to be some signs of improvement with the younger guys being the main contributors. Those are signs you look for to determine if there is indeed improvement. At times we saw that with the RBs. Nothing much more to point to. It would be easy to sell a HC candidate on why a change is needed. By keeping Taggart, Taggart now becomes Harlan's guy. Considering where we are on the food chain the next coach will either be an up in coming coordinator, retread not currently coaching, or someone with enough baggage that they were forced out of coaching and is looking for a quick stop for image rehab purposes. I would think most young and up and comers would look at a situation where a guy only got 2 seasons to complete a total rebuild as a MAJOR red flag. Especially at a program where USF is at in the current college football landscape. Why would they want to go to a program that has never accomplished anything tangible (ie championships), has a fan base and administration with perceived unrealistic expectations, limited finances, and just got done giving another young coach what can easily be perceived as less than a fair shake (not to mention just fired another coach after 3 years)? If you don't see how that could severely limit our potential coaching pool and make the Job toxic you need to take off the green and gold goggles. The only way anyone up and coming would look at this job if we fire Taggart is if they have a previously established relationship with Harlan and they trust him. For any outsider that isn't affiliated with Harlan or possibly has a burning desire to coach at USF there would be a TON of red flags about this job if we fire Taggart. I have to disagree. In an organization when there is change at top no one is safe from the prior regime. Taggart has not demonstrated much to give him lee way. Harlan can make the case that this is just business and Taggart was not the right guy to lead this program. I work in human resources, I know someone will want a shot or be willing to take a chance on coming.
  17. I think this is probably the only hope for there being a coaching change in 2014. We can live with Taggart as HC as long as there are real changes at OC and bringing in a proven guy to teach him how to be a HC. If we just lose Wulfe and shuffle some Offensive coaches to make it look like changes it will be meaningless. Get ready to be disappointed. CWT doesn't seem to me to be the kind of guy to just be a figurehead HC. He won't relinquish control over play calling. Then he better hire Jim when he's fired or he will be joining.
