    Does anyone know who this guy is? I hope this is true, but don’t trust a random tweet.
  2. SpeedBull
    Great minds think alike....we were posting the same thing at the exact same time.

    I’m over Willie Taggart. I saw that same deer in the headlights, fish out of water face at FSU as I saw here. I am not a fan. He’s a snake oil salesmen that was figured out. If you want to ride his jock, feel free to. Let’s agree to disagree because you’ve bored me with this.
  4. SpeedBull
    I’m over it...been over it. I just don’t want him back here. Period. Pretty simple.
  5. SpeedBull
    Excellent points. I can’t believe that Kelly would take Taggart back here. I like the idea of a true Bull as head coach. The pro-Taggart support is baffling to me. It’s like taking a girl back that cheated on you and laughed as she did it....then she screwed the next guy over. The third guy realized he made a mistake with her and kicks her to the curb. Now she “wants” to come back to you. Give me a freaking break. Have some pride. Willie Taggart is not a Bull. He never has been and he never will be.

    You say he was an average recruiter...I read the the other day that he was the ace recruiter on the staff. And I’ll say it again....I’m not saying King should be the coach. I never said he should be the coach. I said that I’d rather have him than Willie Taggart. I’ll say it again. I’ll take Matt Grothe over Willie Taggart.I don’t want Willie Taggart here. Period. It would be a ****** hire.
  7. SpeedBull
    Yes. He can coach.
  8. SpeedBull
    All due respect....Jim Leavitt would never, ever work under Willie Taggart at USF. For the record, I am in the bring Leavitt back as head coach camp....I’m also in the never bring Taggart back camp....all this said it’s a long shot that Leavitt comes back at all...much less as an employee of Willie Taggart at the program he built. Head Coach or nothing for Leavitt.

    CWT will be a very bad decision. Period. I can live with Lane Kiffin. One thing that we agree on is that I believe that MK is a sharp guy that understands the gravity of this hire and I trust that he will make a good one. Therefore, I’m confident that it will not be Taggart.

    “Proven” HCs are over-rated. Just ask......well just ask USF. Skippy was a “proven” head coach when USF hired him. Charlie Strong was a “proven” head coach when Texas hired him...he was more “proven” when USF hired him.....I’m even willing to bet that FSU considered Taggart was a “proven” head coach when they hired him. How about Rich Rod’s failures after “proving” himself as a HC? I could probably come up with 100 more examples, but I won’t.
  11. SpeedBull
    I never said King was my first choice. I said I’d rather him than the other two. Why are you so enamored with Lane Kiffin? The guy that went from the Raiders to FAU. That’s your savior? Or you think Willie is the answer?
  12. SpeedBull
    No baggage. Local guy. Stronger ties to the Bay Area than Willie and Lane combined. He’s been loyal to USF and the Bay Area in general.
  13. SpeedBull
    Absolutely NO to Taggart. I don’t love the Lane Kiffin idea either, but better than Willie. I’d take a shot with Shaun King before either one of them.
  14. SpeedBull
    Dude looks like a deer in the headlights on the sidelines. He nearly destroyed the program until he let his old high school coach run things. I’d rather hire Joe Kinnan. He’s the brains of the operation. JUST SAY NO TO SLICK WILLIE! I think Mike Kelly is way too smart to make this move. Beat it Willie!
  15. SpeedBull
    I’m frankly pretty shocked at the level of support for Willie on here. No freaking way do I want him back. It would be a terrible, terrible decision.
  16. SpeedBull
    No thanks! I don’t want Taggart back. Mr. Kelly PLEASE DON’T DO THIS!
  17. SpeedBull
    I owned up to this as well. I was one of the “he’s taken us as far as he can” guys. I was wrong. I took all of the early success for granted and wanted more...sooner that was realistic. He was a victim of his own success to a certain extent. The “incident” just made the decision easier for the previous administration.
  18. SpeedBull
    Any new coach would be foolish not to retain Shaun King. Local high school legend, great college QB, decent NFL career.....a ton of connections and credibility. If he wants to be here, he needs to stay here.
  19. SpeedBull
    Exactly. I remember Grothe on Jim Rome....albeit one of the worst interviews ever LOL. Loved Grothe as a player, but he wasn’t the best interview.....but the point is that USF mattered. It was exciting. An upstart team from Florida with cool uniforms and a head coach that was head butting players before the game and slaying giants in the process. It was effing great to be a Bull. We had all the juice and we let it get away. This hire is absolutely critical and I believe Kelly knows it. I hope he makes the right decision.
  20. SpeedBull
    The fact of the matter at this stage of the game USF is in desperate need of a lot of things. Not the least of which is relevancy. This program has become completely irrelevant nationally and only slightly less relevant statewide and locally. There is not a single possible hire, short of something ridiculous like Urban Meyer or someone like that, that would INSTANTLY make USF Football significantly more relevant and interesting. I think even the people at ESPN would pump it up. People that downplay the excitement of the way it was “back in the day” were either not a part of it, or just have some personal beef with Leavitt.
  21. SpeedBull
    The “*****” crowd is in the majority.
  22. SpeedBull
    I think this Bisaccia stuff started with the late Steve Duemig back in the day. They must have been buddies. It always seemed like a bizarre recommendation that nobody else ever mentioned as an option. Put me down as a solid “no thanks” for Bisaccia.
  23. SpeedBull
    LOL
  24. SpeedBull
    No Willie....horrible idea
  25. SpeedBull
    I’m not connected to the program, so I have no insight in this area. I’d love to know how much support (or lack thereof) there really is among the donors that carry a lot of weight. How much support is there really for the idea?
