You guys are nuts. These assistant coaches haven’t worked together before. If Oregon hadn’t screwed over Taggart and let his assistants come with him to FSU we’d be 3-0 and the experts would be talking about us winning the ACC. They’re just getting used to working together in real games now. It will work itself out.
So much for Willie Taggart

FSU probably didn’t lose because of poor coaching today,..but the coaches sure did mess up the end of that first half...and the team was definitely flat...
I'm not sure the clock running out was entirely on Taggart. It looks like the receiver was supposed to run out of bounds but didn't.
He did make a strategic error in trying to cut it that close with a team that resembles the Keystone Cops more than a football team. Once there were less than 15 seconds on the clock, he should have just called a field goal and gone into Halftime with some fresh points on the board.

Taggart needs to get a 6-8 year run. FSU is known for their patience with coaches. They let Bobby suck for the last 10 years of his tenure, let Mike Martin not win a title in 30 years, and have had a dozen years of mediocrity with Leonard Hamilton.
By that time, Florida should be dominating recruiting in the state, and FSU can hire another bad coach and go through it again. They haven't had to deal with the coaching carousel, they are overdue.
Please run I formation with that Oline. 2nd and 12 will be your new friend. And the way your QB stares down receivers, you will throw a lot of TD's with those quick passes, just not to your team.
You actually think edging out SAMFORD and getting killed by a Syracuse team with back to back 8 loss seasons is because the coaching staff hasn't worked together?
Bless your heart.
That’s what play action and quick passes are for. And their are lots of different i formations so y’all will just have to pick you poisoin. You’ll see.
It’s true. Oregon was totilly in the wrong with how they treated him. They showed no appresheation to him and what he did up there for there program.
I remember that game. It wasn't for lack of offense. I think we got Zookered on defense if memory serves me correctly.
That was actually a pretty good Cuse team, it was in the dome, and yeah. they got Zooked.
Play action only works if the linebackers have to run support. And the defensive line can be blocked for more than 2 seconds. And the QB doesn't stare down his receivers. But yeah, it's a sure winner. Go for it.
The I formation is one formation. That's why it's called THE I formation, not an I formation. Yes, you can have 2 TE, change the oline splits, make other minor modifications, but it's just ONE formation.
So what I have seen is FSU barely beating a Samford team that just lost to 1-AA MERCER, and be shut out (except for a late TD against the scrubs) by a Syracuse team that gave up 42 points to WESTERN MICHIGAN.
So while you live in a fantasy world, I live in the real world where FSU SUCKS BALLS.
One other point: Your position on changing to the I formation is utterly ridiculous. Do you actually think your football coaches don't know what the I formation is? Or how to throw quick passes? Either they have already decided they won't work (and they surely know a lot more than you), or they actually haven't considered that option, and you have literally the STUPIDEST coaching staff in all of football, all the way down to PeeWee leagues.
You know you're responding to a troll, right? Unless a miracle happens we aren't winning more than 3 games.
What exactly did he do for their program. Took the job, barely made a .500 season...skipped town.
You expect street signs and parades for the guy?
The Power I, the Goal line I, the split I, the Tight I, The Big I, you are right, it's basically all the same besides moving a player or 3 around. It works great for my 7th grade team. Its funny this great hire of a coach has to resort to a junior high offense and sumc thinks it will work well in P5 D1 football.
Oh I was hoping you new about football. I can see now your don’t. This is why it’s hard talking football with Gator fans. You don’t now what your watching.
Your positive attitude is so refreshing. Mullins was directly responsible for 2 National Championship, 4 NFL QB, and you are so smart you can evaluate his head coaching abilities?
Looking at their schedule, they may not win another game. Can't believe some of the 'fans' here wanted to hire him over Mullens LOL
Not sold on Mullens.
Also agree that the only possible wins left are NIU and Wake and that's a coin toss.
That was mostly for the two Florida 'fans' who wanted Taggart and everyone else before Mullen. FWIW, when it was announced that FSU hired Taggart, my first thought was "Seems like they could have done better than that".
Mullen will be fine. He might not win enough games soon enough to please some fans, but he'll eventually get Florida to a place where they are contending for the East every year.
Pfft. There are "some fans" who could watch us go 15-0 back to back years and complain because we won two of the games by single digits.
He began the season feared and dreaded as 'WILD BILL' by the criminole opponents. 
But now his opponents are looking forward to seeing 'sweet William' on the field....
