I dislike Holtz as much as the next guy, but he recruited pretty well. His only weak spot was recruting a QB. He had a couple of solid/good recruting classes. As of right now*, Taggarts class isn't mind blowing or anything. But, back on topic...this guy is a game changer.

I would say that is a huge weakness.  Holtz must be a terrible Chess player.  He never thought past his next move. 

 

Agreed, if we can get Dyer, its a game changer.  It takes the pressure off of the starting qb and gives our offense much needed options.

I doubt that any college player has ever won two national championships (much less BCS era) on two different teams.

 

Bring him in, make him the first, get him a Heisman, put us on the map permanently.

 

Go Bulls!

Cam Newton won 3 on 3 different teams in his 3 years in college

Okay, this whole thing seems mysterious to me.

 

1) Greg couldn't dig up anything. To me, this means it's all being kept very quiet @ USF.

You're almost right, and I was VERY wrong. Just looked it up.

 

Cam played 4 years, and won a JuCo championship and the Auburn championship.

 

He played 2 years at UF, but left the team before the Gators won their championship.

 

I call that one-and-a-half (Auburn and Blinn).

Based on talent alone, this guy is a first round pick in the NFL. The addition of Dyer would immediately change the discussion from can we qualify for a bowl game/beat UCF to can we beat Louisville/win the conference. I think most of us would trust Taggart's judgement. If he does join, this would be a huge for our program. Either way, I'm glad that we have a first year coach who would even consider making a controversial decision like this in order to get back to winning games.

What makes Dyer a bigger risk than Dunkley (who I believe beat his girlfriend with an extension cord and locked her in a closet)? If one is fine to take a chance on, why not the other?

He may have still gotten a ring, but he didn't play in the game, as far as I can tell.

Does anyone know if he has a drop dead date for a decision, or if he's visited any other schools?
