[QUOTE="3xWVUenginEER, post: 131057840, member: 1476506"] I listened to a radio talk show out of Ft Myers’s in the Mornings streaming on tunein. Boosters came up with about $20,000,000 to get rid of Taggart and Staff on contracts. They went down the list of Top Candidates they’ve heard FSU wants. Some of their top choices have buyouts similar to what Taggart and his Staff got. The comment was made “FSU ain’t got that much money coming from boosters AGAIN” according to them. The top choices are reportedly Stoops-from Kentucky (not the one who beat us every season in the Big XII) with a buyout like Taggart’s. He was DC at FSU and has had some success even at a basketball school in the SEC. He also knows how to recruit FL which is key. Mat Campbell has a high buyout too and no real connections to FL. Maybe a WR coach with the Bucs at one time. PJ Fleck who really has no connection to FL but he’s in MN so they assume he’d trade snow and ice for surf and sand. James Franklin who was a target 2 seasons ago but didn’t bite. They wonder if he’s ready to leave Sandusky State Mike Leach, who the hosts of the radio show said, they want him hired just for the press conferences alone. The comment was “you could pay any buyout with $$$$$ You could charge For admission for his pressers.” I think that would be a disaster for the first 2-3 seasons so I hope it happens. That guy gets so much publicity and credit as a great coach and still has Never Won even a Division of a conference-let alone The Whole Conference. He’s an older stranger version of Jim Harbaugh. Lane Kiffin already at FAU Mike Norvell at Memphis The interesting thing they pointed out is to get a top candidate FSU is gonna have to pay and make the guaranteed $$$$$ & guaranteed years EVEN higher cause they just fired a coach with a 6 year contract after only 21 games. It’s why any AD and President better get the hire right the first time. The 2nd time cost even more. Arkansas is getting ready to do this again! I don’t think Taggart was the first choice 2 years ago either. [/QUOTE]
