yeah, but Bama vs ND has history. UF's history is very recent.


Yeah but i gotta be a homer....once Bama lost i thought they would still make the championship game, i was expecting it to be against Oregon though, either way i want Bama to win, i hope they beat the Irish by 84

Bama vs. Georgia was one of the best games I've ever seen in my life. I was happy with the outcome, though, because I was going to have to shower several times a day knowing I was going to have to root for Georgia in the championship game.

I'm sure this will be a sell out. Lol

Usf hires Willie taggert and Cincinnati hires tommy tuberville from Texas tech.

TT's hiring is a bit surprising to me, not that I ever thought that he was a long-term coach at TT.

Perfect hire for USF IMO. Tampa recruiting under Holtz was subpar, this guy should make allow USF to build more of a fence around Tampa. (Albeit, a fence with multiple unlocked gates in it.)

Splash hire for UC. They must've thought Jones was leaving.

Leavitt rumored to TT...

mostly Western Kentucky with a couple of years as a RB coach at Stanford. Not seeing why he would be a good hire for USF. I would have thought they could get someone better. Underwhelming overall head coaching record 16-20, at WKU.

In a nutshell, he's supposedly a great recruiter and is part of the Harbaugh coaching tree. The Harbaugh's vouched for him as did Tony Dungy.

Taggart's 16-20 record isn't reflective of what a job he did at WKU. He took a team that had 20 straight losses and had back to back 7-5 seasons with them. I believe they're the newest team brought up from 1AA.

He worked at Stanford with the Harbaugh's and is credited with developing Toby Gerhart. As well, had the #2 and #3 rusher in the country at WKU in 2010/2011. In their 1AA days, he was on the staff with Jack Harbaugh who led the team to the FCS championship.

He has strong ties to the Tampa area having won the state championship for Manatee in the 90's, playing QB. He has something like 30+ FL kids on his WKU roster, if he can get them out there, the theory is he can keep some of the better ones at USF instead of UF/FSU.

Taggart is probably the best option of those available, besides maybe Butch Davis, for what USF needed. A guy like Morris from Clemson or Dykes are great offensive minds, but lack FL recruiting ties and are even more unproven.
