I guess their expectations are going to need a rewrite.
I expect they will be lucky to score at alll and win 6 games.

FSU will also pay Taggart's $3 million buyout to Oregon and the remaining $1,370,122,.28 that Oregon paid to South Florida when it bought Taggart out from the Bulls following the 2016 season.

Certainly some of the high risk hires workout ok, but many don't. I do not understand why any AD would pay a buyout for anyone but a very small handful of coaches.

Figures Tags would be FSU's Ron Zook. He coaches at Ron Zook Field.

It’s just funny. For having an atrocious record he’s also not humble. He went into every practice like fsu was a gift sent from god and they were going to tootsie roll and duck duck goose themselves into victories. They got exactly what they deserved

Half their 63 plays went for zero yards. My gawd that’s epic incompetence. I just don’t think you can fix that. They’re gonna be stuck with him for a long time too less they be accused of racism.
This makes me very very happy.

Anyone who watched Miami last year knew they were fools gold. FSU under a 47-51 Taggart was going to be questionable. He is from the Harbaugh coaching tree, and had minimal success. I'm in a wait and see approach before saying we will be filling the void. FSU hired a coach more questionable than Jimbo. Miami hired Richt, and we all know Richt.
Really, I wish Georgia would have kept Richt and I hope the Willie is a Richt. It was a horribly coached game for sure. Hells, bells, he even left a TD on the table.

"he even left a TD on the table." That resonates with great pleasure in my mind.

“I look at it as a game against a good football team. We’ve got to play much better. We played a sloppy game. That’s on all of us—starting with me. We’ve got to do a better job.”

Did Taggart steal that line from McElwain? FSU is royally fuked.

:yes:
Brad, Mac would have left out the part, "That’s on all of us—starting with me."

Very true. Mac had zero ability to accept any responsibility. The more I thought about that quote... the more it sounded exactly like Muschamp.

I've tried to forget everything about the Chump. The only thing that I can remember is when he said, "this is who we are" after squeaking out that win against A&M. I thought, that is a bad omen.

So worst case scenario is Taggchamp... it still helps us.

That and the 85% guaranteed contract his friend Stan Wilcox signed him to.

If Taggart is fired by FSU at any point, Taggart will receive 85 percent of the remaining compensation left on his contract. The payments would be made on a monthly basis over the remaining term of the contract.

I'm not knowledgeable about coaches contracts but good lord that sounds INSANE!

So if they happen to fire him after year 3 they would owe him $12million which is essentially the whole freakin' contract!

Is CDM's buyout that crazy?

Never mind, google is my friend. Mullen's is worse.

$12 million regardless of remaining years of contract. Unfreakingreal.

Definitely a coach's market. The fans start screaming and if one of the top picks "slips away" ala Chip Kelly and Scott Frost, the price keeps going up on the third and fourth choices. And in the end, the AD realizes it's not his money.
