This.  This will be Butch's last rodeo.

He moved to south FL for the gig. What more proof do we need that he's thinking retirement? :)

This is true. There's always the chance he finishes his career at FIU, kind of like Schnellenbereger did at FAU. A lot of good young coaches throughout the AAC. Would rather go that route.

Doesn't he have a show cause or whatever?

No.  Apparently his defensive line coach John Blake had a three year one though.

If Taggart leaves I want the same pipeline. I want Brohm here. He is doing great things at WKU.

Davis will be fired and shortly thereafter FIU will be on probation for several years.

As a current FIU grad student I'm pretty happy with the hire.

As for the possibility of him coaching USF in the future...dont see it happening at all.

    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.
