Coach Taggart succeeding at the highest level is bigger than USF football. I love love love USF football but for the sake of our country I think Coach T could be the first African American coach to achieve the pinnacle of College football and carve a path for others.  I am a capitalist and always believe you should higher the best person but sometimes perception and stereotypes stunts our growth from highering the best person.

If taggart leaves the 3 best options would be Lane Kiffin, Charlie Strong, and Larry Scott

I have a feeling Taggart is gone.  He's pretty high on Oregon's list.

Can they please decide already. Tired of waiting for a decision.

I hope he remains very high on their list. Somewhere in the #2 - #3 range is perfect.

Lane would be my first choice...  he's been humbled in my opinion and wants to get back to a HC position.....

i would expect zero drop off on the offense and I bet get a few of Alabamas assistant coaches

If Taggart leaves Kiffin would be a great get. May even be an upgrade over Taggs.

I get that Taggart is just doing what's in his best interests and do not begrudge him for that, but it's going to get old fast if he does this every year.

If he does leave for Oregon, I would like him to do it soon so we can grab Kiffin before he heads to Houston or elsewhere.

I would try to go after a hot coordinator as has been the norm in the AAC lately. A dream hire would be a Jeremy Pruitt or Charles Kelly if we're looking for a defensive guy, or maybe the Louisville OC if we're looking for an offensive guy. 

Nobody with Petrino stank on him ...

I understand all that. But (no offense to CWT) USF's goal is ALSO to win championships, and USF didn't field a football team to serve as a stepping stone for CWT or other coaches. That may be the reality right now, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. USF's interests, and presumably its fans' interests, lie not in advancing CWT's hopes and dreams elsewhere, but HERE, with our team.

And again, I understand why CWT may want to leave. My bigger beef is with Dungy - I'd prefer we not rely upon him for anything more at USF because it's now clear HIS interests align with advancing friends' careers, not USF's success, so let's not pretend otherwise.

Dungy should be fired immediately.

ESPN radio made it sound like Fleck was first choice, lets see how it actually shacks out...

No Kiffin, No Petrino PERIOD. They are cancers.

    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.

    "For me, I never considered it that way (as a stepping stone), honestly. When I was offered the head job at South Florida, and I'm sincere about this, I never thought I would ever go anywhere."
