I think how many freshman we see playing every game says a lot about what Taggart thinks of the players Skippy left him.

 

If Taggart keeps the recruiting up, we will be fine. We had NO OFFENSE for 7 games. It's hard to win like that, but our special teams have been improved over Holtz, the defense looks better as we get further into the year, and if White can play well and stay healthy we have a bright future.

 

The 2012 season was the worst ever.

Anything worth a **** is going to take time... White is very promising, Willie is finding his groove, and I think he takes losing a helluvalot more personal than CSH ever did.

Taggart is moving this team in the right direction.

A spread coach wouldn't do anything with Eveld or Floyd. See games 10, 11, and 12 of 2012.

I really have a hard time believing that we are having this discussion about seasons that happened 3 years ago.  Tell me what disaster got cooked up because of this recipe you're speaking of.  What epic fail, other than the 2nd half of the UF game, did we end up with in 2010?  

 

No one is saying we should have been Big East champs or better in 2010.  The father of our program got ousted and we had to hire someone a bit last minute recruiting-wise.  

 

No one is saying here that Leavitt left us the perfect team.  I'm not even saying Leavitt left us a great team.  

 

He did leave us a GOOD team.  8-5 and MCC Bowl champs over Clemson. 

 

Again, I was only address Bull Martin's comment about "zero" receivers.  Maybe he was speaking figuratively, but he chose to post that in contrast to my assertion that smazza was wrong when he said "leavitt left us in bad shape."  Smazza's statement is overall completely false.  

 

Of course it was figurative.

How do you know a good coach couldn't have gotten anything out of them in a spread offense?

Maybe so, but the response lacked perspective, as Bullrush33 pointed out shortly afterward.

Not really.  It is very hard to argue that the receiver position was adequately stocked when Holtz took over.  One or two injuries should not force you to put a walk on LB at the WR position.  That would be called a severe lack of depth.

Win 2 more games (Memphis and SMU) and we will have 4 wins in our conference.   More than last year put together.

I don't believe that to be true.  May not have worn his emotions on his sleeve but he hated the losing.
