Even though I’m not a huge CWT fan and this plan will never happen here is a creative way to go about it. CWT is getting a huge buyout and he needs to rehab his image in order to get back to the promised land, he has money but needs a place where he can retool and be successful. We on the other hand are a place where just about anything will look like improvement but we currently have no money to make a change. Make CWT’s buyout around $3 million but have him prepay it, if he gets bought out the money goes back to him and everyone has benefited from the arrangement and if he doesn’t he invested in himself and lost and we gave him an opportunity right his ship but at least didn’t  burn thru more cash.

This makes sense...my god man you had a moment of clear logic 😂

He was only one season at Oregon and they were not good the previous season so not sure I'd say that was a failure. More incomplete.

Exactly. Oregon was 4-8 the year before Willie arrived. He went 7-5 in his only season there.

And his OC is running the team and doing amazing as the HC.

So I'd say if he stayed they be good anyways.

I'll skip the 20 pages thus far and make it clear - Taggart did not want to be here.  He left.

This!! Too bad not all can ever understand that fact. Good riddance to the guy that couldn’t beat Temple when it mattered. Bailed out on USF and Oregon within the same calendar year

Anyone on this board would kill for 7-5 right now.  We should consider getting back on the bus.  No P5 program will hire him, but he could get an announcing gig.

I think you'll find that ANY coach we get going forward, that has any success, will not want to be here, and will bolt as soon as a P5 opportunity arises. That goes for any team in the conference. This is a stepping stone. I'm confident that there is absolutely nobody out there who dreams of being USF HC for their entire career. Taggart's situation has changed. Somebody pointed out that he may be looking to rebuild his reputation. Coming back here where he once had success would make sense, and yes, he will bolt again if he comes back and wins, but so would any other coach. It is what it is.

There are only about 20 jobs in the country that aren't stepping stones. Oregon was a stepping stone. Sure as **** PJ Fleck is leaving Minnesota if he keeps this up. Some SEC school is going to snatch him up for millions more. That's the way it goes.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
