All came in under Leavitt. Greg Auman â€@gregauman USF football coach Willie Taggart has added his WKU director of football operations, Sharrod Everett, to Bulls staff in same role. Sucks. Volunteered under Pat Burnham and met Carl Franks a few times. All good guys. Best of luck to them all.

I've always like the guy even though I've never met him. Seemed like a good fit in that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really judge his one year at Akron because they've been 1-11 for the past three seasons basically. Had he had 2 years, there would have at least been a year to improve the talent he did have to work with, but Akron is a cellar MAC squad who hasn't won more than 7 games in a season since 1992, and has only won 7 games four times since then. One bowl game in 2005 that they lost, so I'm willing to look past Amato's quick stint at Akron if he comes here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy knows what he is doing and doesnt need old influence. I'll take amato just because just about anyone with a pulse is going to be more instructive and produce a better defense than cosh.

One bowl game in 2005 that they lost, so I'm willing to look past Amato's quick stint at Akron if he comes here. This is my opinion as well I mean, for judging him on his only year at Akron, look at Taggart. In his first year, he only won 2 games. Even though you can point out that's an improvement from the previous win-less year, I think we would all be in agreement that it would be a horrible stat if that was our only year to judge. If you come in taking over for a team that has been a continuous doormat, you need more than 1 year to be able to turn things around. Especially in a conference that really doesn't get much respect (so it makes it harder to recruit players to come to you) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
