No offense to WT, but he doesn't need to be Head Coach & Offensive Coordinator.
It can work if you’ve got the right underling and it didn’t seem like Walt Bell was the right fit.
It’s honestly tough to tell with how incredibly terrible our OLine was this past year. According to Corey Clark out of 837 OL who played 20% of the snaps or more FSU players were ranked : 837, 832, 791, 709, 537, 536, 449. And If Abdul Bello had played a few more snaps, he would've qualified as well -- and been ranked No. 836.
So when you have literally the worst OL in college football and honestly the worst I’ve seen anywhere at anytime not just FSU...it’s tough to grade if Taggart’s scheme or playcalling is effective. You can try to mitigate the terrible OL but you can’t hide entirely from it.
So I’ll give Taggart and his playcalling a pass this year due to the OL.
I agree 100%. He needs to find someone who has his same philosophy and let Willie croot and overlook the whole program.
Drew Brees is a guy that gets it
Drew Brees surprised dozens of his past and present receivers, offensive linemen, coaches and mentors this week with commemorative footballs and letters to recognize the part they played in him breaking the NFL career passing-yardage record.

The comments coming out of the recruiting weekend are unbelievably positive. Say what you want about WT, but that man can recruit. Ira wrote a good article this week about WT becoming a CEO type, I am starting to believe that would be ideal.
Yep. The Dabo model.
It's nice to flip an OL commit from BC, no matter their star-rating.
I'm hoping we don't have to count on that. If I were JF I'd be looking hard at Ohio State.Yep. And hopefully we grab Justin Fields if/probably when Sam Howell flips.
Josh Newberg and Bud Elliott put in their CBs for FSU in the Fields sweepstakes.
I'm pretty confident we get five star and consensus #3 CB in Akeem Dent.
Honestly the defense wasn't truly terrible last year if the offense wasn't actually truly terrible. So I'm focused on how to improve the O. And based on everything the crootin experts are saying we should five all new starters at the Oline coming in from HS, Juco and grad transfer. That won't be a National title level OLine in year one but if we bring in similar quality guys the next two years we should be.
So OLine should be set and I really like our already existing RB and WR corps. So that leaves QB as our only big hole. While I've been on securing Sam Howell all crootin season, there are some better scenarios even if he backs out. Honestly I think long term Lance Legendre will end up better than Sam but years 1 & 2 Sam will have the upper hand and is better suited to start next year if we have to.
But my excitement level for next season is based on who we get at QB.
If we land Jalen Hurts, Justin Fields and Lance I would be at a full 15 out of 10 level of excitement.
If we land just Fields and Lance I'd be at a solid 11 out of 10.
If we land Jalen and either Lance or Sam I'd be at a 10 out of 10.
If we land Sam and some other nonfrosh QB not named Jalen or Fields then I'd be at about a 7 or an 8 out of 10.
If we end up with only Lance and some other nonfrosh QB not named Fields or Jalen then I'm at about a 4 or a 5.
And if we don't land either Sam, Lance, Jalen or Fields then I'm at about a 2.5 or 3 out of 10.

Genius. This is why Twitter is so addicting.
There's a new rumor started by somebody I consider semi-in-the-know that James Cook is transferring out of Georgia as well. And we might land a three fer deal of Cook, Fields and the frosh WR everyone is clamoring over.
We'll see if it's true....

You had one job (and I can't stop laughing)
As expected, Sam Howell flipped. Unlike past Tribe from two weeks ago and seemingly every FSU recruitnik, I’m no longer devastated and wallowing in misery. We need an immediate fix at QB and I think we solve that with grad transfers. And this year was NOT a good QB year unlike last year and next year. So if we get a good to great grad transfer and maybe a 3 star QB with upside then all is not lost.
But no doubt losing Sam hurts.

For a football natty? Yeah probably 500-1000. For a baseball natty? Maybe a million.
Glad we could help keep the lights on.......

So much anger and chicken littles on “fan” boards. This is actually not bad and a solid start to a team that has lost 13 games over last two years and was 5-7.
Losing Howell stinks. Many blaming Bell others his dad. Others not naming a OC. Seems pretty clear to me the real culprit was watching our offensive line play this year and knowing there would be no one year fix.
Hopefully we can find another QB. And some more big uglies. I still support and am not giving up on WT.

Reading the boards yesterday and today was depressing and you would have thought the ranking was 113 vs 13
Need to find a QB. Hopefully there is a kid our new OC is really high on that is unsigned

We could be headed into the spring with only ONE scholarship QB on the roster. That's a major concern.
Or we could be like Miami and only have about 50 kids on scholarship come spring ball...
