thank you.

Clearly Flowers was built for a spread offense. That's why Taggart changed it.

He wasn't "forced" to change. Same reason he ran a pro-style offense for White. Because it suited his abilities.

It's called good coaching when you change your system to fit your players.

CWT changed the offense because he hated  Mike White.

Not sure if serious or not but the first two years we were certainly running the Stanford smash mouth offense. Then suddenly year three we were going more open on offense. One thing I did appreciate about Willie was his ability to change. Now was this Willie doing this on his own or being forced? I would side that it was more on his own because of the speed recruits he got. But at the same time why did he take two years before doing this?  

I'm serious.  Bull94 has done a great job explaining it ....

Hate is a beautiful thing...it motivates, creates opportunities, and generally just feels good when tied into revenge.

As far as I'm concerned in the end CWT did exactly what was best for USF-he rebuilt the program to a successful point, got a bigger job that made us look good as a stepping stone, and got us money back on the buyout so we essentially made money off him. While the roster balance wasn't great when he left, whoever the next head coach was going to essentially get a free year to recruit hard and rebuild the roster while we had the best team in USF history on hand to push the envelope. Had the team kept winning after the first half of 2018 then fan support would have continued to grow steadily and we're likely looking at 2020 being a power year for the program. What CCS did was utterly horrid for the program-his losing caused a lot of people to lose hope right after three and a half years of winning had finally caused some people to start getting interested again. I wonder how things would have gone had CJS been hired in 2017 instead of 2020.

Holtz id guess. 

I thought for sure that his hiring was a good one and he has done well at ECU and LaTech.

Moved ahead of some guy named Les Miles Saturday.

That statement is kind of dark.  Yet exhilerating at the same time.
