Hopefully the assistant pool exceeds 2.5 and we get some great experience on the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it classless to leave a team before their biggest game. +1 Sorry. Hope he gets here and starts working for us ASAP. WK needs to start moving towards their future. If Holtz had made a bowl and left us I would just want him to go so we could move forward. Agree. I want Coach out there recruiting for us from tomorrow morning. Get 'er done Coach!

That would be cool! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has seniors on his team playing the biggest games of their careers. Careers that will be over with that game. Running off to dollar signs is a Rich Rod, Brian Kelly, Lane Kiffin, etc. move..ie classless. And those recruits will still be there.

I don't know, probably not my first choice, but, I am happy that we have someone. I think this guy can be great. Just hope he starts the blood transfusion and gets some green pumped in those veins... anyone who has the passion for this program that we all have will make me happy. and who out of the list of candidates would have more passion for USF than someone from the Tampa Bay area? He's also the one that's most likely to stick with USF in the long-run. Taggart was my first choice all the way but i would have been happy with Davis or MacIntyre or Morris, I just don't think they'd have the passion for the program that Taggart will bring. We should see our recruiting get much better. First things first, let's get AW back onboard! Edited December 8, 2012 by thatboykane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be mad if he stays, it would be a classy thing to do... but... I wouldn't think him to be classless if he leaves and gets started here... It's not just recruiting, but, he has to put a staff together. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PLEASE DO NOT LET HIM BRING HIS WKU STAFF HERE! That was Skip's downfall in my opinion. PUT TOGETHER A BCS STAFF WT! Edit: Blackwell is OK, maybe one more, but, he needs a solid staff if he is to be successful.

Not running to $$ that right there shows how little you know about the guy. And sorry yes in our present state 2 weeks is 2 weeks. I'm not going to scream if he stays but hope he is on his way.
