He will get his next year when he wins 9 games and the next time it will be if and when he gets us #6.

So many jokes could be had with that statement but I will let this one die….

Lol reading is key. I said he elevated the program….dog. In another thread I said he would win 9 games next year

Context is key. People said Mario turned around the Oregon program. I pointed out that the turnaround started with Taggart and Mario was a part of his staff. I also pointed out that Mario elevated the program from where Taggart started. Acknowledging an increase in wins by Taggart and that...

Oooook then. But all this started bc I merely pointed out that Taggart improved Oregon from 4-8 to 7-5. Don’t know how stating facts can spiral into someone being a nole fan or not all in. But you do you.

You found me out. After posting on canes boards for over 25 years and spending a lot of $ donating to the hurricane club/season tickets/traveling to away games I must be a closet nole fan. And I would have gotten away with it if it hadn’t been for that pesky theibisrules….

Who cares about Willie lol. Is he even coaching now? If I was him with all of the money I got from being fired I would be sitting on a beach somewhere.

Seems like you are triggered by Taggart for some reason. Me saying taggart is not a good coach equals me pumping for Taggart?

Correct Mario was a part of his staff and part of the beginning of the turnaround. Mario built upon the first year and took it to another level. Lanning is building upon the firm foundation Mario left and can be argued taking it to a slightly higher level.

I’ve been on these boards since pre-grassy and one thing that has always remained constant you will have fans that vehemently defend the coach and other fans who heavily criticize the coach/want something different. Some people even switch camps depending on who the coach is. So this is...

How does stating facts that Taggart improved Oregon from 4-8 to 7-5 automatically equate to hoping Mario fails? That’s a big leap. I’ve already said I think he wins 9 to 10 next year.

Never said he was a good coach but merely he improved the team in his only year and started the turnaround.

Mario took over a team that was 7-5 and went 5-7 his first year. Taggart actually won more games than his predecessor at Oregon in his first year. Mario lost more games than his predecessor at Miami in his first year. Why would I defend that? Your logic is faulty. I’m not defending...

Maybe you misunderstood. Taggart took over for Helfrich who went 4-8 his last year. Taggart improved the team (and Mario was on his staff) by 3 wins to go 7-5. I don’t know how someone could say improving a team by 3 wins in their only year constitutes a disaster.

Has nothing to do with his time at Oregon. What point were you trying to make?

Taggart was there one year and improved the team by 3 wins (4-8 to 7-5)

To be fair the turnaround started under Taggart and Mario was on his staff. Oregon was 4-8 the year before Taggart. Taggart went 7-5 (Mario took over for the bowl game and lost).
