    FSU is gonna pay Taggart a $18M buyout. Unreal.

    They care and expect to win. I knew Taggart was going to be axed this year or next. They should have never hired him, but they deserve props for not letting this go on and cutting bait early.

    Frankly I'm shocked that an AD stupid enough to hire him and saddle themselves with that buyout had the brains to fire him. There can't possibly be anyone outside FSU circles who is surprised he failed. Is there? This was more of a guarantee than Ty or Gilby at UW.

    FSU was built similar to the Boise model. For decades, FSU played and scheduled as an independent picking who they played and when. FSU and Miami were doomed once they joined a conference. Being close to fertile recruiting grounds, FSU will pop every now and then but they will never return to their glory days. Boosters will wring their hands and throw money at it but it isn't going to happen.

    To add to the recruiting piece, their last 5 classes (2015-2019) were ranked like this:

    2015 - 3 (7) 247 ranking in parentheses
    2016 - 3 (2)
    2017 - 6 (6)
    2018 - 11 (14)
    2019 - 19 (26)

    There is no reason for Florida State not to be good. A great coach could still build a monster program there. It just needs to become a cool place to play again.

    Florida schools lose a lot of top players to the top SEC teams and Clemson. Get some of those guys, evaluate better with the others, and develop.

    And tallatrashy is a shit hole so all there is to do is play football, practice football, think about football, play class, think about banging chicks, and then of course bang chicks.
