Mr. Harbaugh should be available soon. Or Pruitt, Addazio, Fuente? I don’t get the xCWT fixation... There are so many other coaches who are closer to being canned.

NO  MORE  RETREADS!

They're getting fired because they're losers.

couldn't agree more.

hire someone young, energetic, and ambitious that will work hard for the big payday.

not someone who failed at a higher level and thinks we are beneath them.

He'll be getting paid ridiculous money at FSU no matter what. He's done well for himself and his family no matter what the W-L ends up looking like....and he may end up winning at FSU if given time. He did a good job here, definitely put together the best offense we've ever had, and eventually learned how to get the most out of the talent he assembled. He probably left us right in time. Our offense was red-hot in 2016, and we were about to lose Mack and Adams. It would have been risky to stay here,  passing up the big $$$ Oregon, and eventually FSU were throwing at him. I don't think that staying here another couple of years, even if he had won big,  would have upped his stock that much.....he ended up getting a great contract by bailing when he did. If he stays for 2017 and the GCO isn't as effective without Mack and Adams, maybe his stock falls. He did the right thing.

obviously if he thought FSU job would be open and he'd have a shot he would have stayed one more year.

He will succeed at FSU. They have 4 losses. All to ranked teams. 3 of those losses were by 7 points or less and they led in the 4th quarter in all of them. Leavitt will get the defense fixed.

It's not like he is being blown out by smu and navy in year 3.

for some reason people on here have an issue with the guy. I don't blame him for leaving for a better job. I just hope the next guy does as well. That will mean we were successful and we got paid for him to move on. Better than the alternative.

Willie's dream job is FSU.  Be careful what you wish for :P

I know exactly what happened to Taggart, he doesn't have Flowers to rely on. 

I'm not a Taggart lover or hater, but don't all coaches rely on talent?  Blackwell, Grothe and Daniels were no slouches....

I'm with you, but we did just hire a successful OC and some are even calling for his head in his first year with an banged-up freshman qb running the offense.  I'm all about getting rid of Strong, but I think Bell's system could work.  Is Bell a Kelly hire or will he go when Strong goes?

X1000000000! Anyone over 60 need not apply. If you were fired from your previous job you need not apply. If you are a defensive minded coach you need not apply.

How about we find the next Tags that will be so successful here that he will be hired away? I don't want the fired Tags.

Not a fan of the system myself. it's just a hybrid pro-style system. very complicated system that relies on a dominant o-line.

I'm talking about a young OC from an established P5 program. They have coached against the best DCs and talent in the country.
