A Talk with Tomahawk (Nation)

As you may have heard, Florida State fired their head coach Willie Taggart this week. Selfishly, WHY NOW?!?!?!?! What terrible timing for us. There’s nothing like a firing to rally a team. The narratives practically write themselves. This was only Taggart’s second season in charge, but pressure from the outside seemed to be too much. What a quick turn of events for the Seminoles. Now, longtime defensive coach Odell Haggins will take on the interim role after previous serving in this capacity when Jimbo Fisher resigned as head coach at the end of 2017. Haggins won the final game of the season and destroyed Southern Mississippi in their bowl game.
