Willie Taggart's STAFF Thread

Post

I want Briles so bad. He could help Willie Wright excel again and the rest of the offense as well. It’ll be awesome if he’s back

Willie hiring his friends to be coordinators while firing Spencer would be an absolute blow. It would be infuriating if we go back to being a 3-9 next season

Who said he is firing him. Reports say USF who pays more and an SEC school are looking at spencer.

I expect Spencer already turned in his notice and has already been hired for a new job.

I think FAU's Assistant Coach Salary pool is exceptionally high this year. Our pool was 2.1M when Kiffin was around. So if we used the extra money we saving on taggart on the assistant pool, I wouldn't be surprised if its over 3M. Can someone find out?

Officially concerned about who Taggart is gonna hire for OC after the article yahoo sports wrote in Taggart today. Taggart saying he wants to be more involved in the play calling to me is not a good thing. Hire someone to call plays

At this rate it looks like we are gonna see if Skip Holtz wants to leave La Tech. That way we can have all the formee USF coaches. Maybe Charlie Strong as an analyst.

With Charlie Weis Jr. expected to join #USF as offensive coordinator under Jeff Scott, I’m hearing #FAU tight ends coach Clint Trickett likely to be promoted and take on a coordinator role with Willie Taggart and the Owls. Trickett also would coach QBs. - -Adam Rittenberg

I think this is a great move.

Yeah I take back my previous post. This is great!

We just gave our proven right and left arm hires to USF.

 :Straight-Face:

They were obviously good enough to go and coach at a higher level, why not keep them?

We'll have to see how this goes, but Spencer is probably going to eat us for lunch next year.

I’ve convinced myself that USF is a better job than FAU so Spencer decided to leave and go there. I wanted him to stay. He spent years as the DC at OK St so I expect he wants to get back in the P5 soon.

Hence my concerns from day 1……Last I checked our offense was pretty freaking awesome but for some reason Willie T thinks he can do better….Yeah, right!
