New Taggart Rumor

Advertisement


All's fair in love and war. College football is big business. There is no easy way to say 'goodbye'—and for players to rip a coach for leaving last minute, when said players will flip on national signing day (burning a school that recruited them for years, planned on their arrival, didn't recruit other players at the position, et al) or kids that will bail early to go pro, when a program was reliant upon them the next year ... it goes both ways.

Had Taggart not done a good job, Oregon would've had zero issue firing his *** and sending him packing just before Christmas. Instead, dude is from Bradenton, was offered a gig at Florida State (after coaching at South Florida for a few years) and is back in his home state.

Sounds like sour grapes from some 17-year olds who are too green to know how the game works.

Taggart had to play his hand wisely; as would any coach in that situation. Things could've fallen apart with Florida State at the last minute—so if he announces that he's going and then is stuck in Eugene, then what? Awkward.

Again, there is no "right" way to do this. People need to grow thicker skin. College Football is high-stakes poker and then some.

You sound ridiculous. Really, saying 17 year old kids need to “grow a thicker skin” after Taggart lies to their faces?

And yeah, there is a right way to do it. Do you see UCF players tweeting about how Scott Frost lied to them? No, because he had actually told most of the seniors he was thinking about leaving and told most people around the program that he had a Nebraska offer.

Taggart also tweeted out days before he was leaving about how he couldn’t wait to continue recruiting, etc., as rumors were flying that he was leaving. Do you know any other coaches who do that? He’s done that at his last three jobs.

The guy is a liar but instead of just playing coy like most other coaches do he goes out of his way to lie to people. Bizarre really.

I disagree......Nebraska Job was speculated about for almost the entire year.....Scott Frost was talked about for that jobs as well as other jobs like UF for the entire year. Taggerts name wasn't mentioned for anything until the last week or so. Only with FSU coming surprisingly open was this possible. So of course the way they were handled was completely different.


Now to be completely fair........Have you ever left your job? Interviewed for another? Did you tell anybody at your current job you were thinking about leaving or interviewing until you had a real offer/signed contract? Do you stop performing your duties at your current job in the meantime? Did you call your clients saying...hold on I may be switching jobs so don't place that order?

It's not really bizarre.....its how 99% of all people handle changing jobs.

Although I couldn't care less about this situation, the two situations you are comparing are not even in the same ball park.

He didn't have to keep recruiting....simple. Just go dark and wait for the situation to play out. That way you don't look like a complete jackass after the fact.

The ‘right’ way is don’t sign a contract you aren’t going to uphold. I know that’s far fetched but that’s the way it’s done in just about any other business. People sign non competes and are sued if they don’t comply with their contract. Your post is spot on though
 
Willie Taggart gets to play against Dabo every year. Let's see how that work out for him.

No they are similar, just because you say they aren't doesn't make it so.......Yes keep recruiting because the FSU thing might fall through until it is done....You keep doing the job you are paid to to until you are officially signed to go somewhere else.

Lol. Scott Frost told people around UCF, including his own players, that he was considering Nebraska after they made him an offer. What did Taggart did? Lie again. It’s incredible how out own “fans” will makw excuses for the FSU coach getting ripped as a liar by his own players. You guys are freakshows.

No....just realize a bunch of people with fake outrage getting their panties in a bunch about something that happens over and over again and is no big deal.

Every year you have coaches who do this. Every year you have recruits slow play and lie. Happens in this business. Thinking this actually matters and is a big deal is cute.

It’s not “fake outrage” you idiot. Nobody on this board is “outraged.”

Coaches do not leave jobs after one year “every year.” And they DEFINITELY do not tweet something to make everybody think they are staying, which Taggart has done three times over the course of his career now. Can you point out any other coaches who have done that?

Keep defending the FSU liar though.

Next year FSU has to play [MENTION=690]Miami[/MENTION], VT, @ND, @NC State, Clemson, [MENTION=10383]louisville[/MENTION] and Florida. Good luck Taggert lmao. Even if they win half those games, that’s still at least 3 losses
