Strong is about the closest we could get to another Taggart I think.

He was a bad fit at Texas.

Would love Strong, but I don't see it happening.  I think Larry Scott is our guy.  He can recruit and we could retain a bunch of the current staff.

Heard the name Bissachio (unsure of spelling) as well. He has ties to this area as well. Not sure of how he would recruit etc but I would love to get a guy that has some ties. I think someone like Kiffin would jump after one year if given the chance. 

Rich Bassacia has interviewed for the HC job when Leavitt was canned and again after Skip. Believe he was interviewed for the South Carolina job as well this last go round. He's a career NFL Special Teams guy. The general response has been he's one of the best football minds there is but has no current recruiting ties. He's never been a college head coach or coordinator and hasn't touched a college job in 16 years.

You must be speaking about Rich Bisaccia.  He has been a special teams coach in the NFL for at least 15 years. I am guessing our friend DUImig, who rarely talks about USF and only insults the  fans and program, is pushing for his friend again.  He seems to be a good special teams coach but wouldn't picking him be like letting UCF or ECU fan pick our coach?

Can't go wrong with Lane Kiffin or charlie Strong.  However, I cannot see Lane Kiffin leaving Alabama where he is making $1.4 M/year for a USF HC gig.  Taggart I believe was making $1.7M/year with his extension.

Ugh, Rich Bisaccia.  No thanks.  

My vote is for Charlie Strong.

My life got infinitely better when I stopped listening to that station, him in particular.

I made the mistake of listening to them at noon...couldn't listen long before cursing the radio after they kept saying USF needs to just get use to this and Dungy did great getting Taggart a better job.

I do sort of miss the competitor they had but sadly that station never found traction. They were a friend to USF.
