I like you Slick, but you are so pro Holtz, that you are jaded now my friend. Go ahead list that Ryan Leaf game and watch what game I post after you which will make you look pretty silly. Slick's whining because he is a Skippy apologist. Skip was 5 and 7 and then, 3 and 9 which is why he was shown the door. If he had been 7 and 5 and 9 and 3 he would still be here. USF is not a name brand with zero national buzz and will not get the front line coaching talent some on here unreasonably expect. Landing someone with NFL experience is certainly not a terrible thing and he has to be better than what we saw in 2012. ********. Total ********. You two are the ones that keep bringing him up. Maybe you two have a thing for him. Who was the one talking about Rattay getting hired at La Tech? I am happy with the hire and was unable to say that 3 years ago. Who was the one saying CWT was behind in hiring assistants? What other coach do people on this board know so much about that is putting together a staff? That may be over your head though. And you want to point out the posts 3 years ago where you were so unhappy? Were you sad when USF beat Clemson? Or Rutgers? Or Louisville away? Or Notre Dame? Where are you posting, "Well, he beat Notre Dame, but I am unhappy with the coach"'? Edited January 10, 2013 by slick1ru2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything he said about Holtz was 100% accurate. It's unreal how accurate he was. However, I was hoping that it was "ECU" and give him better recruiting areas, a solid team he was walking in etc. that he was going to be successful. Skip was a GREAT guy, really was impressed with him as a person, but as a football coach? Insert Dennis Green's rant here... As for those wins, those were great, but the LOSSES, way too many of them were worse than I would've ever expected. Come on man! We lost to TEMPLE! Most football fans around me (SEC country) didn't even know Temple had a friggin football team! He wasted a golden opportunity, senior starting QB with years experience who was one of the best athletes in the Big East who when running the read option was as deadly as they come. Now we have been left with a turd CWT is going to try and polish while in the worst possible position this University could be in. Frankly, it's going to take a miracle worker to get us back on top in 3 seasons and it couldn't have come at a worse time. He was a nice guy, but move on. Let's leave him in the same grave he buried our chances of escaping this alignment nightmare... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying its the same circumstances at USF but if CWT is the real deal I expect he can have USF doing great things by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Style Posted January 13, 2013 Group: Member Topic Count: 109 Content Count: 21,144 Reputation: 4,649 Days Won: 40 Joined: 09/14/2007 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I was pretty excited when we found out Willie Taggart would be our next head coach. But with the conference uncertainty, inability to put together a coaching staff, and few recruiting splashes to speak of, I'm starting to worry that the shiny new wheels on Coach Taggart's bus have already been muddied and beaten in. I don't know that Coach Taggart can rejuvenate this football program anymore. I guess we'll just have to get used to mediocrity and obscurity. Dang we haven't even seen a game yet. If they turn into a fired up emotional tough defensive team, I could see the excitement turning right around. I don't see why we couldn't run the table in this conference after a building year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taggart has put together a great staff and seems to be quite the recruiter. The luster was never gone and perhaps I jumped the gun. Sorry guys! I'm hoping he's as good a gameday coach as he is recruiter. Because we'll have one heck of a team! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
