I think this is about as good a hire as FAU can get. Just like you only get a Petrino or Kiffen one time after they’re damaged goods you don’t get that setup every time you need a coach. Willie T drove me nuts with some of his stuff and especially his love of Kawaun Jakes. Plenty of negatives to put on Willie. But his positives outweigh them in my opinion.

Haters gonna hate. Willie needs to break out his grill for his press conferences.

FAU will become the Bradenton Manatee Owls doe! He should kill in South Florida as well but dude will hit up his hometown area.

lol what has Taggart ever won?

He has never won so much as a division title. No conference titles obviously. He's never even won a bowl game since he bailed on his teams twice prior to their bowl game and lost the only actual bowl game that he coached in.

He's 56-62 all time as a coach.

Someone above mentioned he knows how to win "at the G5 level" but that's not true either. He was 16-20 at WKU and he was 24-25 at USF.

He then went to a program in FSU with enough talent to blindly fart your way to at least 7-9 wins per season and somehow managed to lose there, even while playing in a pretty bad ACC conference.

He's a good coach? 03-lmfao

Here's a question you can answer and save me the time from doing a search...

was that your opinion before Willie took another job?

edit: never mind just notice you are a UCF fan not USF

As a HSFB coach I felt the practices looked jumbled and they even had to run drills on jumping on fumbles because apparently that wasn't second nature to them. It was interesting to say the least. I do wish him well, but I thought FAU would land someone better tbh.

Someone better than a coach that has won 7 to 10 games 4 out of 7 seasons as a G5 coach after a rebuild at 2 schools? Someone better than a coach a top school out west and a top school in the south P5 hired? Someone that gets top in the nation recruiting classes at P5 schools and top of the conference in G5?

Willie isn't like a old retread winding down. He's still young and has a drive to win and still relates to todays players.

Hell look at the hires in this conference..OC's from other schools. Or FCS head coaches. FAU just hired a head coach that recruits very well and has shown he can win in the G5.

Better?

He coached Oregon for a year and was very average. He was below average at FSU and got run out after 1.5 years. I just am not big on him, especially being so bad that he made FSU cough up $20 million for a buyout. He is probably a good G5 head coach and nothing more.
I said when he was hired at FSU he reminded me a lot of Al Golden at Miami, I was right.

RE: FAU hires Willie Taggart
Looks like Taggart for the long haul. A 5-year contract at $750k per year, annual retention bonus of $25k, plus various incentives. The buyout is $3mil if he leaves before 12/1/22.

FAU is a G5 program so again I fail to see how they can get a better coach that is young, but still 10 years of being a head coach, recruits, shown he can win in the G5.

UNCC was choosing between FCS head coaches that hadnt proved they could recruit or win at the FBS level. There's nothing wrong with that because most of us go that route or a P5 OC/DC with no head coaching at the G5

Sorry but I don't think those are positives. I want a football coach. Not a hip hop culture with grills and dancing. I like rap a lot. If he does that crap like he did at FSU then it will show he hasn't learned anything. Team cared more about celebrating than basic fundamentals in football

That was a joke just to poke at all you salty boys. Willie had a damn grill when he was a super young assistant here under Harbaugh. Long before he ever went to Stanford to join young Harbaugh. I was told from a friend that someone told him not to wear his grill when he flew out to interview with Jim Harbaugh for Stanford position. Jesus that must have been 10-12 years ago.

Willie is by no means a perfect hire. But he damn sure isn’t a gloom and doom like you’re portraying. You tell me who FAU should have hired. Who did they miss the boat on?

Well he did win the I-4 Bowl in 2015 and 2016 pounding the UCF assses.

Maybe that’s why you’re so salty no?

I think WT can win in this conference for two more years with Robison. The real test is what happens in year THREE.

He will be able to recruit like no one else in cusa. But unless he lets other people run his offense I see mediocre results.

when have you been around the team to know anything they care about?
You know you can see practice from major programs virtually right ?

And I have many friends in tally

I put you in your place when you called me out last time. Stick to the topic I know what goes on with the FSU and fau programs.

If he is a good recruiter, you'll still be okay after Robinson leaves.

I wouldn't judge WT by his performance at FSU. Jimbo's last year there seemed to be a train wreck. FSU has issues beyond the HC position.

I hope this turns out to be a great hire for FAU.

So you have friends that waste their time standing around watching college football players go through drills? That's all they will see because game prep is closed and no you will not see that on line.

You know nothing of the ins and outs of either program. Other than reading it on line.

Actually I broke down the trips and explained how I made equivalent trips or longer just this year
.
Traveled 1200 miles this year to campus. So went to a home game

Traveled 3 hours to Ohio State. Equivalent of them traveling to Tampa for a bowl game in scenario I laid out

Plus I support local teams by me. Which is all they'd have to do being closer to our college

I called them our for not going to all games. Not just a bowl game. Mentioned the bad home attendance at a cusa title game many times

When I asked what's the excuse for not going to home games then , you avoided it

So yeah you didn't prove jack. Just a big mouth shooting it off again. Stick to topic and stop trying to be internet tough guy

Traveled 1200 miles this year to campus. So went to a home game

Traveled 3 hours to Ohio State. Equivalent of them traveling to Tampa for a bowl game in scenario I laid out

Plus I support local teams by me. Which is all they'd have to do being closer to our college

I called them our for not going to all games. When I asked what's the excuse for not going to home games then , you avoided it

So yeah you didn't prove jack. Just a big mouth shooting it off again. Stick to topic and stop trying to be internet tough guy

Again you are using EXCUSES that has nothing to do with you not supporting your team/school in their bowl game.

You seem to think other FAU fans dont have those same things going on in their life. That you are special. It's a freaking 2.5 hour direct flight from Cleveland to Ft Lauderdale that is under $150 that gets you to the Boca bowl and home again in 48 hours.

Again you dont know **** what's going on daily in the FAU or FSU programs. You are not seeing game prep on line and neither are your friends. So it's bull****

when have you been around the team to know anything they care about?
You know you can see practice from major programs virtually right ?

And I have many friends in tally

I put you in your place when you called me out last time. Stick to the topic I know what goes on with the FSU and fau programs.

You put me in my place? You are a idiot. I called you out for not traveling to FAU's bowl game. You gave a number of EXCUSES on whyt you cant be in Boca. The same thing you said FAU fans use for not wanting to play a bowl game in another city or state.

So you have friends that waste their time standing around watching college football players go through drills? That's all they will see because game prep is closed and no you will not see that on line.

You know nothing of the ins and outs of either program. Other than reading it on line.

Way to skip over everything I just said. I've gone to many local games like they could. And I've made a long and driveable trip for games already this year

I didn't call them out just for the bowl game. Maybe a mouth breather like you needs that repeated a lot to get it

I see practice and games. And know people who know team members. By your rationale we can't comment on anything with the team at all

Oh....it’s because he ‘lucked’ into Flowers. Willie ran the Stanford power offense here at Western. He ‘lucks’ into Flowers and he completely changes his offense.

I think this is about as good a hire as FAU can get. Just like you only get a Petrino or Kiffen one time after they’re damaged goods you don’t get that setup every time you need a coach. Willie T drove me nuts with some of his stuff and especially his love of Kawaun Jakes. Plenty of negatives to put on Willie. But his positives outweigh them in my opinion.

Haters gonna hate. Willie needs to break out his grill for his press conferences.

FAU will become the Bradenton Manatee Owls doe! He should kill in South Florida as well but dude will hit up his hometown area.

lol what has Taggart ever won?

He has never won so much as a division title. No conference titles obviously. He's never even won a bowl game since he bailed on his teams twice prior to their bowl game and lost the only actual bowl game that he coached in.

He's 56-62 all time as a coach.

Someone above mentioned he knows how to win "at the G5 level" but that's not true either. He was 16-20 at WKU and he was 24-25 at USF.

He then went to a program in FSU with enough talent to blindly fart your way to at least 7-9 wins per season and somehow managed to lose there, even while playing in a pretty bad ACC conference.

He's a good coach? 03-lmfao

How's Hueppel doing?

How's he doing? I assume great. He's 22-4 over 2 seasons with a conference title and has a true freshman QB who just threw for 3,400 yards and 28 TDs.
