No one at this point in time is making excuses for CWT.  But to put the blame on him for stuff like missed tackles and dropped passes is ludicrous.  You think CWT is coaching them to do that?

Do you think Muschamp was coaching the Gators to miss blocks and drop passes?

I'm the 1st to criticize Taggart, but Jim McElwain inherited a team with a TON of talent. Comparing the situations is not fair. McElwain looks like one heck of a coach though after what he did at Colorado State and has the Gators rolling early on. 

Will Grier is a RS Freshman lighting the world on fire and looks scary good already. Goes to show what a good coach brings to the table from the get go and that coaching matters at any level.

I'm with you 100% that there's not been near enough improvement on offense, but if you don't see any improvement since year 1 you're just closing your eyes. Our average PPG has gone up in every year he's been here. I AM NOT SAYING THAT'S ENOUGH IMPROVEMENT, I'm saying it is improvement. I believe Taggart running the offense is the only thing holding this team back from being a good AAC team.

Hmm...

The thing about blame going to WRs is, it's an easy assignment ... if your receivers are dropping balls, which ours are, then they definitely deserve some blame.

CWT isn't out there dropping balls.  CWT isn't out there throwing interceptions.  CWT isn't out there missing tackles.  CWT isn't out there getting out of position on plays.  He definitely deserves blame for unimaginative and predictable playcalling, yet some people will absolutely not be satisfied until CWT takes every ounce of blame for every bad thing that has occurred to USF football.

If those aren't excuses, I don't know what they are.

CWT is the Head Coach.  It is all his responsibility.  That is what leadership is all about.  Read about Harry Truman some time.

For CWT, the buck stops at that other guy over there.

This has been his philosophy from day one. Don't know how many games it cost USF. if you recall They came back and beat Tulsa and SMU when he opened it up. I believe that the more people question his philosophy the more stubborn he gets. IMO that's arrogance and it will cost him his job if he does not change.

I have a difficult time believing that his assistants aren't recommending he throw more. Either he is not listening or they just feel it why bother. At this point it is very difficult to watch him coach.
