Give me a break. There you go again. That has absolutely NOTHING to do with ANYTHING either you, or I, or anyone said. The coaching abilities of Holtz and Taggart, and on field performance is a completely different argument than whether or not a roster was stocked at the beginning Holtz or Taggart's time here. Nice try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he one of the stud WRs that Leavitt left behind for Holtz? Or were you referring to walk-on QB Bobby Eveld as one of the studs of the "stacked team" Leavitt left him? Seriously, did Taggart sleep with your sister or something. You're so far beyond delusional its probably a waste for me to even bother, but Leavitt left a WR corp of Sterling Griffin, Dontavia Bogan, AJ Love, Evan Landi & Lindsey Lamar (and theoretically Carlton Mitchell, who decided to bolt rather than play for Holtz) . I'd say that far exceeds what Taggart was left. And Holtz inherited BJ, an above average to good QB, while Taggart was left with 2 QBs who would struggle to start at the FCS level. Holtz was also left with a defense that just finished 19th in the country giving up only 19.8 pts/game. Taggart inherited a defense that was giving up 27.4 pts/game. You may question coaching, but if seriously don't think their was a huge (and I mean HUGE) talent gap to what each coach was left, you simply should stop commenting on football. /thread The QB and WR talent differences between the two regimes is striking.

Since I will be in Phoenix over the T-Giving holidays, I've given away the UCF tickets and parking passes to the local homeless shelter. I'll have my focus on USF basketball and Lightning hockey. USF football and especially Willie "The Mechanic" Taggart can go suck a crescent wrench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may question coaching, but if seriously don't think their was a huge (and I mean HUGE) talent gap to what each coach was left, you simply should stop commenting on football. Carlton Mitchell declared for the draft the same day Leavitt was fired. He had likely decided to declare even before he knew Leavitt was gone. It clearly had nothing to do with Holtz. So that's a fail. Landi was a TE and Lamar was a WR. They both played WR because there was no one else to suit up once Love and Griffin got hurt. Thanks for bringing up Griffin, because he bolted when Taggart showed up and went to play for Holtz. So Leavitt left a total of five WRs for Holtz. And Leavitt used to run five wide sets all the time. There should have been easily 10 to 12 scholly receivers. Once gain I'll remind you that JOEL MILLER was tied for 4TH on the team in receptions in 2010. That is still unbelievable to me how Holtz got that team to eight wins. And you really are going to tell me that a good job of recruiting WRs by Leavitt? Really? The WR core when Holtz left was far deeper and more talented. There were a couple of other WRs that bailed at the same time as Griffin when Taggart showed up with his two yards and a cloud of dust offense.

Taggart's team last year was 21st in defense with the players Holtz left for Taggart. How does this demonstrate Holtz left no players for Taggart?
