Rich Rod and Kelly leaving before BCS games was totally classless. You want Taggert to get USF to the Orange Bowl next year and leave for the SEC before the game is played? And USF gets blown out of perhaps its only chance at a BCS game win? I bet everyone's tune would change then and talk about what an SOB he is, leaving before USF's most historic game.
is wku playing in the bcs? How many other coaches changed jobs this off season and aren't coaching their team in a bowl?
They are playing in either the first or second bowl game in the school's history so yeah, its HUGE for WKU. And its my opinion that a lack of ethics and class and chasing the $ sign is totally what's wrong with college football today. I guess I am in the minority.
I just think your off that it is about chasing $$. He doesn't get any more $$ by coming here tomorrow or 2 weeks from now. It is about the next chapter and everybody needs to move on.
I have no problem with leaving for more money, but I think coaches should always stay to coach the bowl game, especially a BCS bowl. NIU will probably never get another shot at a big time bowl game, so it's sad to see the coach abandon the school and the players.
Obviously WKU is a little different since it's not a major bowl but still a big deal to WKU and their fans.
Anyways, I'm excited for Taggart to take over.
