Paul Finebaum Goes In Very Hard On Florida State Hiring Willie Taggart

Florida State is off to a 1-2 start this year and ESPN college football analyst Paul Finebaum is not holding back when it comes to the hiring of Willie Taggart as head coach last year...
quote:(The Spun)
“What idiot, what blubbering moron decided Willie Taggart was worth a $17 million buyout? Has anyone bothered to look at this career record? He’s 53-59 overall. He was 7-5 at Oregon. He had a losing record a Western Kentucky and South Florida. This guy is not a winner, but some athletic director gave him a big six-year contract with a $17 million buyout. Someone may need to pour lemonade on his head. If you want to hire Willie Taggart to wreck your program, $17 million buyout is available,” Finebaum said on ESPN’s Get Up!.
Finebaum added on ESPN’s Golic & Wingo that Florida State should consider moving on.
“Now should they consider getting rid of him? Absolutely,” Finebaum said. “There is virtually nothing he has done right in two very short years. Last year was a disaster. This year, they gave up a three-touchdown lead to [Boise State]. They beat Louisiana Monroe on a missed extra point in overtime and last week, they lost to a good, a good Virginia team, maybe one of the better teams in the ACC. Which by the way guys, is not saying very much. After Clemson, the ACC has nothing.”
