This is probably a one or two year gig for him, like Petrino at WKU. If we manage to win the AAC next year, and Taggart bolts, would anybody here be interested in Davis? I'm hoping Taggart doesn't bolt, as I think he is probably a better fit here, but in case he does,  Davis may get a  look. He cleaned up Miami's program iirc, but did the opposite at NC.

Um good question. My short answer is no. It's no because he hasn't coach since nc. They fired him and that's not saying much. I think my grandma  Bessie could of coached those Miami teams and prevailed.

I will wait and see how he does at FIU. He could be terrible.

Butch turns 65 this week.  There's only so much tread left on those tires.

Honestly, if CWT were to leave after next season, considering the season goes as expected, I think we would be able to pull someone in better than Butch at this point in his career.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
