LOL. The Canes fans up here in Capital City had plenty of reason to hate him already.
But What a ******* Moran!
Tallahassee is not a big city. It’s more a big town where everyone knows everyone.
What a horrible thing to say for an incoming FSU coach
Funny you bring this up....inm was at a holiday party last weekend and 3 guys were Nole fans and kept going on about how much Taggert was better than any coach in Fla. One of them looked at me and said kiss all the Miami kids goodbye. I asked "why and how do you think that"
He said because all the black kids are going to want to pay for a black coach and not Richt or Mullen. I said really?? You think that strategy is gonna work? He said absolutly one of the main reasons we hired him.
I laughed and said "didn't work out that well with Randy Shannon did it? Didnt work out for Kevin Sumlin or Tyrone Willingham or Turner Gill. He looked at me and said " Well we are Fsu and those coachs sucked" I said kinda like a 47-50 coaching record huh.
I said you don't hire people based on the color of their skin. You hire based on ability. Not saying Taggert is a bad coach but if I gave you a blind resume on a guy who's never won his conference and had a losing record would fsu hire him. He said of course!
I just got a call... 813 area code... something about if I want to coach on the FSU staff... ****, guess Wee Willie never changed his phone number from two jobs prior.
Just everyone remember. Can't spell Willie without the 'l-i-e'
