Yup. They got the audacity to throw James Franklin name out there :mjlol:
Yeah idk know why they even put Franklin's name out there. I text my boy who is on his staff about it and I got a HELL NO text in return:mjlol:


If no Bob Stoops then they really don't have many options. Not too many good coaches that are established would take this dumpster fire job.

That would leave someone who hasn't been in the bigger programs again. Like Campbell and Fleck. :francis:

Not the same PJ Fleck that inherited a 9 win team, won 5 games his first season, and 6 games his second season, only to see the fruits of his labor in his 3rd year????

I also wonder would the job be "too big" for Campbell, a guy who has never won 10 games at any program, like it was for the last guy that turned TWO programs around?? It better be Stoops or bust. Cause if they settle for any of these middle of the pack cacs, then the program I grew up loving has really let me down.

Fleck would not be a bad hire at all. The only thing is Minny offers him everything FSU can + less pressure to win

Yeah I know right. I can't believe there wouldn't be improvement with Willie when he had his own guys. You saw it every place he went. Always the third year.

With black coaches they want them to go the dirty work and let the white man come in and win.

It was a red flag when they refused to let him hire top assistants his first year.

I bet any amount of money. Whatever white coach they get they will have ALL THE RESOURCES they need with no expense contested:pacspit:

Naw. At this point they better try to get a coach that has won a title or has won at a big program. FSU can't afford to do an experiment.

I was impressed with Fleck when he was a Niner. Wasn't a bad receiver til he got hurt

@jwonder yeah I don’t see too many name brand coaches out there who are available but I feel reasonably assured majority of y’all’s base wants the name brand hire
Stoops wouldn't be a bad hire based on that he is willing to adjust to today's game. I originally thought of him as a Mark Richt hire. In regards to a retread coach but he left OU in a good position.

Listen to Cameron yesterday. Booster told him they’re fully invested with the next hire. bud explicitly said that bags dried up with the Taggart hire. This firing had nothing to do with W/L’s. Boosters who own businesses around town were losing money. Booster memberships have gone up every year since ‘14. Ticket sales dropped but factor in product on the field, difficulty getting to tally on game days, hotels price gouging, shytty stadium amenities, of course it’s gonna happen. Then boosters backing out cause they didn’t get who they wanted and here they are.

Yep. The Boosters protested with their wallets. And the Cameron's and Bud's of the world were their mouthpiece the entire time. They fed the fanbase negativity the entire time. All you have to do is take a look at UNC's media. Even a loss to fukking Appalachian State at the crib can get them to shyt on their coach/team in year one. The team fell flat against VT last year and it's been downhill since. fukk those clowns too.

Bruh this part right here.....Tally was on some other other shyt when we were looking for hotels there for the UF game last year. I understand mark up, we ALL do, but the prices they marked em up too was like 300% of the normal weekly rate. fukk that!!

Yeah I get all that. But it makes them look like they are full of shyt. I mean they couldnt do a private donation to get better assistants day one? It would have been cheaper than to do his buyout:gucci:

Bottom line they never wanted Taggart. Don't know why they even hired him to begin with if you were not going to giving him all the resources.


It's fukked up on all levels. I'm glad Willie got paid. :yeshrug:

Another reason why I haven't been to a game in Tally since Boldin played. No way I'm paying that kind of money in a Podunk town:mjlol:

They still run with that Wilcox only wanted to hire a minority bs. If that’s the case, why was Taggs the ONLY minority candidate interviewed? They full of shyt and they getting what they deserve.
